Here are a few tips if you are having a similar problem:

1. Apply in a different category - each category of DMOZ is human edited, some of the individuals do a horrible job approving listing and some do quite well.  If you cannot get accepted in your desired category all you need to do is find a similar category and try there.

2. Yahoo Directory is not a bad alternative.. Yes it cost quite a bit for a yearly listing; however, if you are working on your site's SEO and need a strong directory listing YAHOO is a quick way to get listed.
