Dropped Out of the Google Directory

No cache date either lately.

I was dropped out of the directory for about 2 months. I am in DMOZ, and was in the Google directory for quite some time until we were dropped. Our page rank increased to 6, and was increased this month, not dropped. I thought that maybe my server was down when Google re-updated, but our backlinks increased twice over this time frame. Is there anything we can do? Any advice would be much appreciated. Also GG displays cache date only some of the time.

Is there anything I can do?

I wouldn't worry about the cache date, that can come and go, but it seems odd to lose your Google Category listing while your backlinks are improving.

It used to say category>blue>widget>whatever
That does not appear anymore, neither does cache date. But when emailing gg, they finally responded and said i was in. To confirm I searched www.mydomain.com and my site came up which does prove I am in the index, but still with no directory information. GG was nice enough to respond at least, but it didn't get me far.
