---- Is DMOZ still relevant in 2009?

I don't think dmoz is relevant any more. It probably was up to about 2005-6 but there are so many editor-less cats now, so many dead sites or sites that have been bought and taken over by spam merchants.

I'm sure we'll see the usual candidates coming onto this thread soon saying things like "dmoz isn't there for YOU, it's there for everyone.", etc, etc. This was an argument that held up until a few years ago, but not anymore.

It's a shame, I'd like to see it get revitalised, cleaned up, but that will take a lot of time and/or money. I'd be amazed if it was still around in five years' time.
