Will Best of the Web Acquire DMOZ from AOL?

Jeremy Schoemaker recently blogged that DMOZ may be acquired by the great guys at BOTW. While BOTW has no comment regarding the possible acquisition, personally, I think the BOTW guys would be the most ideal group to take upon this project. They're dedicated and really have worked on building a solid product, which is why so many people stand behind them.

Sphinn members agree. As we already know, DMOZ has been suffering a slow downfall for the past few years, and it's time for a good replacement to come in. I wholeheartedly support this if it happens, and I hope it does!
