    Hi!

    I am working on a web directory and I am wondering if it would be legal
    to copy some of dmoz.org categories and subcategories.

    Can I replicate them without violating any law?

    Thank you!

    The DMOZ makes the terms of use easily available:
    http://www.dmoz.org/license.html

    The bottom line is you can use their data, including the categories alone, so long as provide the attribution and links back in the form required.
