Your site is currently in unreviewed in that category. However, there has been some confusion regarding your URLs.

I'm afraid you'll have to decide whether we're listing bookbutler.info or bookbutler.com. We're not listing both versions of the URLs.

Currently, gb.bookbutler.info is listed in http://dmoz.org/Regional/Europe/United_Kingdom/Recreation_and_Sports/Home_and_Garden/Consumer_Information/Price_Comparisons/ , but it seems obvious to me that your site should not be considered relevant only to the UK.

Whow, I didn't expect such a quick repose. Thanks a lot!! :)

We have got for every country (.de, .com, .co.uk and some not so importand tld) which we localized (shipping, language and in the future more country related spezialisations) a bookbutler domain. We have still little trouble to bring all domains to one provider. That's the reason, that till today the homepage of the country domains are framesets, where the visible contend comes from the bookbutler.info domain.

So I think the very best would be, if the British service would stay at http://dmoz.org/Regional/Europe/United_Kingdom/Recreation_and_Sports/Home_and_Garden/Consumer_Information/Price_Comparisons/
as bookbutler.co.uk and not gb.bookbutler.info, and bookbutler.com could get listed http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Publications/Books/Searches/.

If you think that beeing listed in both categories is not the best for the users of dmoz, I would prefer that only bookbutler.com get listed.

Thank's again!

Kind greetings,
Bernhard

If I understand you correctly, all of the information is actually on the bookbutler.info domain. A quick check of the US site showed this to be the case, at least for that one.

If this is the case, we will only list bookbutler.info (and possibly some of the country-specific subsites on the .info domain), as we preferentially list the site where the content is actually located.

Your understanding is right, that today all Information is on the .info domain. But this will change in the next 14 days, so every specific site will be hosted under his country domain.

As you can check, we own the .co.uk and the .com (.de, ..) domains, so it's just a technical delay. Then the .info domain will "die" (Not visible or promoted any more).

What do you suggest:

A) Should we wait, until the domain transfer is done and then request again.

B) Go on with the subdomain (gb.bookbutler.info, us.bookbutler.info, ..) and ask for a correction later.

Kind regards,
Bernhard

Yes. You should wait until everything on your end is done with the site before you submit.
