The OpenDirectory project (ODP) aims to build a human-edited directory of as much of the web as possible. Many humans use OPD? directly to find sites, and most search engines recognise ODP as being a 'high quality' resource and adjust listings accordingly. The project was inspired by the the Yahoo propriety directory and both have run into problems due to sheer size and differences of vision. There is a MailingList of ex-ODP people called xodp.

The reason I mention this is because the current entry for WLUG is still pointing to http://wlug.linuxcare.co.nz/, and since there is currently not an editor for this category it's never going to get fixed. Someone needs to volunteer for the job by following this link: http://dmoz.org/cgi-bin/apply.cgi?where=Regional/Oceania/New_Zealand/Business_and_Economy/Computers/User_Groups

(zcat(1) is an editor for the ..new_zealand/personal_pages category and advises that being an editor is hard work. To preserve your sanity I suggest you to get approved, fix up WLUG's entry, and then immediately resign.)
