Google hasn't updated its copy of DMOZ for two years now so I doubt it still considers it "directory of authority".

Why isn't there DMOZ alternative? Simply because nobody uses directories any more - I got 11 deeplinks in DMOZ and they get me only 30 visitors a month - original long time forgotten idea behind DMOZ was surfers creating directory for other surfers not listing service. Search engines simply become too good and wikipedia took over as easiest way to find information you need.

Alternative to DMOZ is Yahoo dir which charges a fee but you can still get a listing for free if you have a good website. :-)
