DMOZ rankings and SEO?

DMOZ used to play an important role in SEO PR and rankings but it was long time ago, what about now does it still that important for SEO to get a back-link from that directory?

Dmoz has no direct influence over your PR. The link from it would be counted as any other one.

Dmoz is a popular directory as like Yahoo! Free listings are not mostly accepted in DMOZ, Inclusion in Dmoz is bit pricey but gives you some amount of traffic.
As mentioned by @SureNot, It doesn't play/played a vital role in Google PageRank.

I like Dmoz and its listing process. They check a lot about each listing and its display content. This is also a reason that Google and other search engine give importance on its listing.
If you want to list your project on Dmoz just try descriptive content as compare to promotional content.
Thanks

Yes, Getting back-link to your website from Dmoz would be very beneficial in making trust in the eyes of Google, because Dmoz is very authoritative directory that would also be helpful in getting traffic to your website. But a single directory would not be helpful in increasing PR, if we have to gain then we must have to promote our website on other good and relevant websites.
