Great Idea, For the categories you may want to download the dmoz RDF dump from http://rdf.dmoz.org/. Get the structure.rdf.u8.gz. That should give you a pretty good comprehensive category listing.
Dmoz has put a lot of time planing their categories so it's bound to be the best available. Just a thought on validation, are you going to automatically validate submissions? If so you may want to build your own validator. You can get a good idea from the w3c validator or WDG's validator their both free for download. Depending on how large your directory becomes, your server may get a bit flooded though.
