It's not clear if it's a new policy or a glitch, but some webmasters are upset as it appears that the Open Directory Project (ODP) is delisting sites that post their links in the Marketplace (for sale) section.

A new policy from DMOZ? Doesn't seem like they have done anything new in years. It's hard to believe anyone at DMOZ would have time to remove sites. It seems like maybe they would be feeling a bit under the gun editing the backlog of sites in the queue. I guess I'm feeling a little snarky, but does anyone really care about DMOZ?

ODP removes thousands of dead sites per month, by using automated tools, editor teams, and individual actions.

The editing stats are published monthly by ODP. They aren't particularly hard to find in a search.
