Is DMOZ a living corpse?

DMOZ is the open directory project, that Google is also using as a source for its indexing activities. However, the quality and completeness of DMOZ is far from optimal. And the openness of the system to user input is very limited.

Many suggestions later, I can say that editors seem to be ignoring useful user input. It gives the impression if the involved editors are overloaded or not really interested at all. Very different from how Wikipedia is run by the community of users and the organizing foundation.

So, it is clearly an area, where things are susceptible for improvement. Although, I saw a Wikipedia.org initiative in this direction as well, it is not actively promoted on Wikipedia's website.
