My understanding is that all recommended candidates received the "save the date" email. A while back, someone gave a date of April 21 for the Sub-Saharan Africa notifications. Not sure where they got that from--maybe that was when they heard last year. Anyway, the wait will soon be over.
Yes, I'm also waiting to hear about sub-Saharan Africa--ETA in South Africa. I've been watching the board for a while and decided it was time to join in to give support to others who are waiting.
