The directory closed as AOL no longer wished to support the project. The editing community are working on a replacement directory; meanwhile the last dataset (RDF) is published here, but is not editable.
Normally, any site suggestions made to DMOZ will be carried over to the new directory.

As an ex Editor I was very sorry to hear that Dmoz was closed. Wishing you all the very best in your efforts to replace it

OMG! DMOZ was my go to for YEARS! All of the links were excellent and not filled with advertising. This directory was invaluable in providing supportive services for myself and my children all throughout school.....wow

Thank you. We will be back though. We have to rebrand and it's taking a while to organise the data but as soon as we are back (under a different name) we will let everyone know here. :)

Surprised they didn't put it up for sale, bet your bottom dollar that someone would have bought it..
