I have submitted a site about 5 months ago and it has not been listed. I re-submitted to another category and it still is not listed. I am a web designer and this client repairs broken windows and it is confusing as to what category to submit it. Can someone please help? Thanks.

Boiler plate response coming up:
You might have misunderstood our objectives and how we operate here. ODP is a volunteer organisation building a directory as a hobby. Editors edit where they wish, when they wish and as much as they wish within the constraints of their permissions. We have no schedules or systems to force people to do work that they don't volunteer to do. ODP is not primarily a free listing service for website owners and it does not attempt to process their listing suggestions within the time scales desired by them.
Some volunteer will process your listing suggestion in time but we can't predict who or when that might be. Elapsed times can range from a few days to a few years. There is no need to re-suggest your website and doing so could be counter-productive because a later suggestion overwrites any earlier one.
Regional/.../locality/Business_and_Economy would be good.

Thank you for replying. I certainly understand the time frame when working with volunteers. I have submitted many, many sites to DMOZ and have never had a problem. The sites I've previously submitted have been listed within 2-6 months. I was just wondering if I submitted it to a wrong category and that is why it has been delayed.
