I'm not sure if it's appproriate but I give it below:
The DMOZ category structure at the moment is just a category. Websites in a same category are simply listed according to the time when it was approved. From the category, we don't know which one is weighted highly. It still leaves us a hard decision on which one we should pay a visit to.
The problem is less obvious when they are just small category with limited amount of websites. But when the catoegory grows, this will a problem which we have to take a serious look at.
Here I give a possible solution. And I hope some of project involvers can make comments on it, and most importantly, further the idea.
We may set a weighting system that, when anyone clicks on the website given at the category once, the weighting system will record the IP and add one point to this website. clicks from the same IP can only be counted as "one point".
If a website gets the highest clicking point, the website at the category will automatically float to the top of the list.
I know some Chinese category websites have already realized this. I hope my suggestion can be of any assistance to DMOZ.
