DMOZ really only wants your site to have a single listing in their directory. No mirrors, no doorway pages, no clone domains, etc.
If you had to choose between a regional, and a non-regional category, which would you choose? Does anyone have any hard data about the difference in the choice? |

Actually, many sites meet the critieria of listing in a topical category as well as a regional category.
It can be one of the instances where a site might be listed twice, if it meets the criteria for both.

Many sites qualify for both regional and topical listings. If one takes time to read the guidelines rather than repeating urban myth, it is clear that there are many occasions when one is encourage to suggest their site to multiple categories:
Submit once to the single best topical category.
Submit once to the locality where you have a physical presence, someplace where the daily newspaper is delivered and a customer can visit.
Submit once to the appropriate World/ categories if your site is translated (by human, not by machine) into multiple languages.
