Nowhere in the whole ODP process is there any position with the power, or activity with the effect, of "getting things moving." All that you can get moving is yourself.
At this point, an offer to help would have to be tendered to the AOL corporation (not us us editors!): it is AOL employees (only) who are doing the system administration, installation, and data recovery work inside their own corporate network; and that is for reasons based on their own corporate network security. (You will have to forgive them for thinking that's more important than your motive, whatever that is.) Also, a handful of editors (administrator or technical-specialist level) are helping test; there are many more editors who are willing to help with that part, as soon as they need that much testing.
At some point the editing servers will be opened back up for applications for new editors. A qualified volunteer editor will have to be self-motivated enough to work in the absense of micromanagement and strict time tables, and will have to be tolerant of other editors' interests and editing schedules. A new editor will absolutely not EVER be given the power to impose time tables or policies on other editors -- that also is not a power that is available to anyone in the system.
You're always welcome to read the ODP editor guidelines, to learn what editors can do, and some suggestions for good ways of doing that, as well as give you some clues about what you have a right to expect an editor to do.
