DMoz stuff?

Is anyone doing anything clever with material from the Open Directory
Project (www.dmoz.org)? It seems like it ought to be a way to put instant
Internet guides on your site. Just ftp it, gunzip it, and run it
through...uh...some good XML parser and search engine? Anyone?
I have played around a little with the Personal Open Directory script, but
I doubt it would scale well and I'm dubious about the long-term viability
of a product that's really just screen-scraping directory.netscape.com.
