Does DMOZ editors have access to these trends? DMOZ appears to be growing overall however the DMOZ shopping category is shrinking.

I have heard that it is very difficult for a new editor to get a shopping subcategory, and their are few editors in this category.

I realize that shopping is probably one of the categories most subject to abuse, and may have a higher standard.

Anybody have historic monthly figures on the DMOZ shopping category, or does DMOZ only keep track of the grand total across the site?
