Hi,

Announcing it "so late" (was it the same/next day after the product
launch?) should not be a problem. Active community members and
developers do not need to be "created" overnight, they existed before
the developer program was launched. If I understand the program schedule
correctly the lucky ones shall get notified rather soon.

Br,
