DMOZ only searching categories, not sites?

Is this just a glitch?

I just noticed that searching for the name of a company on DMOZ (which is listed in DMOZ) returned no results. So I tried some well know mega corporates which were also listed in DMOZ - but still got no results from a DMOZ search.

So I went to [search.dmoz.org...] and tried searching 'sites only' and then searching 'categories and sites' - still no results when you search by company name.

Eg if you search for 'jobs' you will get the 'job categories'. If you search for a 'well known company name' - you get no results?

Anybody confirm they are also getting this? Is DMOZ being up/downgraded?

It's a bug. It should be fixed in a couple of days.

The search bug is still being worked on.
