Thanks again Dmoz, looking forward to being "found".

Aaron

I "found" your submission, and sent it to your suggested category. I'm not quite sure how it ended up in the wrong place since you obviously know the correct place!

It's now awaiting review in Science/Environment/Water_Resources/Rainwater_Harvesting

Thank You!

Thank you for taking the time, my other website you listed last year is doing great!

Aaron

Howdy DMOZ folks!

I know, I know all you can think about is turkey right?

Well you know what we all think about right? Our websites and when will they be listed in the mighty DMOZ directory! Some of us b-i-t-c-h and moan, others go away then come back to b-i-t-c-h and moan...heh!

So if you kindly have the time before you add gravy please update me on the above listed website I am eager to have found.

Cheers!

Well, not all of us our eating turkey, or even living in turkeyland.

However, status checks have only minimal benefit. You know the saying the watched pot never boils.

... and time spent checking could be spent doing other things.

See: http://resource-zone.com/forum/faq.php?faq=rz_faq#faq_status

and come back and ask again after April 21, 2005 if you want.

I am waking up, you ready for me?

Well folks, the L-Tryptophan Effect from the turkey has almost worn off and I am back again getting ready to pop the question to you guys here at DMOZ. And no, I am not going to ask you guys to marry me like google did!

My promise to you:

I will try to be a little more sensitive to cultures who do not wolf down turkey and celebrate victory over a once wild untamed land (see above post).

I will also try real hard to refrain from bitchin' and moanin' until April 21st when I come back and ask "what about me"???

Kind regards,

rain-barrel.net

DMOZ Sandbox?

Is my www.rain-barrel.net in some sort of DMOZ sandbox thinger?

I am planning on dusting this site off soon, inclusion in the DMOZ directory would be great!

Kind regards,

Aaron

Can I get a little more information than this? I have been waiting sinse October 21, 2004, 09:41 AM.

Thanks

What additional information would you expect to receive?

(I'm assuming you have read the forum FAQ)

Can you add this to the FAQ:

The advice I was given by someone who knows more about this stuff than I do is "Submit your site to dmoz and forget about it, if you try to figure out dmoz you will go nuts"!

I guess you either get lucky or you are don't, this time I was not but for some reason my other site www.home2garden.org was included in just a few days. The same for www.ne-design.net someone must have really thought rain barrels are great!

But "rainwater harvesting"? What's that? How do you define that, is he selling products, is it a blog what the hell is it? So, I have renamed the title to describe exactly what it is, it's titled "Rainwater Harvesting Guide" now and it will cover everything related to rainwater harvesting (a sort of blog). I am going to write about it until I am blue in the face and maybe even design a new rainwater harvesting system to offer their sometime. I can envision dmoz editors thinking "What's this, oh well I will place it here and edit some other ones" and their it sits until I come back months later and ask.

I think you can put yourself in our places and understand why we ask the same questions over and over just as some of us understand what it is like to have 75% spam to dig through to find a few "Mom and Pops".

I will keep hoping someone finally gets it, and includes me, but if not it is fine, there are other ways to get in the door.

Thanks for your time,

Aaron
