Exactly. This is a deeper problem with ooh.directory, that the review process is opaque. They do not explain why something is added or rejected. I do not care much about Emacs itself but I submitted several of my favourite bloggers who write about retrogames, gaming rigs, and custom keyboards. None of them were added. None at all.

I do not think we should be encouraging closed directories like this in the community. I would much rather see a transparent directory where the review process is clear.

You do seem particularly offended or annoyed that some blogs you suggested have not yet appeared on the site.

You can read the FAQ article to see the criteria for what’s accepted, and also reasons why suggested blogs haven’t yet appeared.

Ultimately it’s my own hobby site and so I decide what is “good” or “interesting” - so long as it meets the other criteria.

I'm not offended. Just a little frustrated that I took the time to make some submissions of blogs I thought were missing but never heard anything back.

But you're right that it is your hobby site, so you get to decide what goes in.

		The sole person running this site doesn't find the same things interesting than you do. How dare they. The sense of entitlement displayed is really breathtaking.
