Danny,
My field checked application was recorded on 20-Dec-2007 and few days 
ago I saw my numbers updated in PDF's available on DXCC WEB Page. So, 
actual processing delay in my case was about 7-8 weeks (including 
holidays season). Not so bed knowing the number of major expeditions in 
2007 and number of requests received at end of the year.
