I think you submitted to the wrong category. It appears that your site's main purpose is selling sports software and should have been submitted to

 

http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Sports/Software/

 

you site was moved from Sports to Shopping where it sits waiting to be reviewed with a large amount of other sites. It might be a while before the site gets reviewed.

 

My advice, resubmit your site to http://dmoz.org/Shopping/Sports/Software/ which has much less of a backlog of unreviewed sites.

 

Hope this helps -

I don't want to encourage double-submitting in general, but when the first submission was in a not-remotely-right category, there's no problem at all (in fact, it might even help the editors) to hunt up exactly the right category (or even almost the right category) and submit again.

 

Twice to "remote" categories isn't really spam--in fact, I think I'll say it is hardly ever spam. (Of course, most of the time you probably won't get two listings out of it.)

 

Half a dozen times to "nearby" categories WOULD really be spam.

Original submission got moved to Shopping/Sports/Golf. That seems the better category looking at the site and seeing the clubs and balls for sale besides the golf software.
