Any docs at dmoz about how a site becomes cooled (eg: gets a gold star)?

[dmoz.org...]
A site that stands out among the other sites in the category or is
the most definitive site on a subject can be marked as a "Cool Site." 
Ideally, since the cool site is the best site in the category, there
should only be one. However, two cool sites may be appropriate in some
circumstances. 
It is contrary to ODP policy for editors to cool their own sites or
any sites with which they are affiliated.  Doing so is grounds for removal.

It's not something that is used much in commercial catgories. More often given to killer resource/informational sites....kinda like WMW:)
