I still think that directories can help, but that you should be selective as to the directories where you submit your site.
With regards to DMOZ, I still submit my sites and I believe the best policy is to take your time, submit carefully to the most appropriate category and with a carefully written site description etc. Then forget about it, because it seems to take about 18 months before they approve submissions and there is nothing you can do to speed up the process.
