two searches bring up seperate categories - one excluding Ireland

When I first searched the directory months ago I found no category for Ireland, only Europe so submitted my site there (not listed yet): http://www.dmoz.org/Health/Alternative/Acupuncture_and_Chinese_Medicine/Practitioners/
But now have found it here: http://www.dmoz.org/Regional/Europe/Ireland/Health/Complementary_and_Alternative/Acupuncture/
Hence, I've accidently submitted my site to the general Europe category, and just now to the correct Ireland one.
Also, from these two you can see that Ireland doesn't have 'Alternative/Acupuncture_and_Chinese_Medicine/Practitioners/' categories...
First question, what can I do about the double submission?; second question, what can be done about the difference in categories between regions? Thanks in advance

Don't worry about the double listing suggestion. We'll sort that out when we get to it.

As to your website, it'll eventually be listed in its locality - which might not have an Acupuncture subcategory because there aren't enough acupuncturists there to justify creating one.

In Topical, we list websites by topic and in Regional, we list websites by locality.

thanks for your speedy reply. Any idea how active that category is in getting listed? I originally submitted last October? Any hint would be great! Thanks again,

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.
