Am I wrong to be kind of miffed with them for taking so long to notify? I'm sure they have a reason, but no one is telling us anything. It's been almost six months since the national deadline.
No, it's not wrong for you to be miffed. I don't understand how it takes them so long. Granted, Germany has the most awards/candidates of any country, but even so, other big countries (Korea, Spain, Malaysia) have been pretty timely this year. If they don't notify this week, something might be off.

People have been bumped up for Korean and Turkish (in Azerbaijan) so far. Other languages from what I know have not. Some of these were as early as the 22nd. So it's really as soon as someone declines.
Bummer, I am waiting on Turkish. I applied for intermediate though, and I feel like it's a lot of beginners who get bumped? Maybe it's just me? Trying to remain hopeful.
Edit: Thanks for the new info!

Have any alternates heard anything back? Or does anyone know when we should expect to hear something?
I haven't heard anything yet. I emailed CLS yesterday but they didn't give any helpful info.

I've been putting off applying to full time jobs because I wanted to know about the Fulbright and be sure I could safely accept any offers beforehand (I don't want to burn any bridges with so little work experience), but I'm graduating in May and waiting is starting to seem like a bad move. If Germany doesn't notify today or tomorrow (or if I get bad news today or tomorrow lol) I think I'll just start applying places.
I'm in the exact same conundrum. This is the only thing I applied for (unwisely) so if I don't get the ETA I'll have to start looking too.

Congrats to all Germany Research!!
Nun warten wir auf das ETA. Hoffentlich kommt auch heute!!

Finalists received an alumnus information email yes, and the follow up that apologizes for the accidentally included extra portions. Odd that the alternates got the apology but not the initial email.... dunno what that says about the way they manage their communications, if it says anything at all. Weird though.
Definitely weird. Figured you guys had gotten both emails. I was hoping this meant my address got put into a new email group list (updated list of finalists with bumped alternates?) but I didn't wanna speculate too much for fear of reading too much into it. It's probably an error as you said.

... aaaaand that's another day without Germany either. At least now I'll get notified over Spring Break and can ugly cry all alone rather than in public on campus if necessary
I'm currently on my spring break and it's been driving me bonkers!! I have too much free time and not enough distractions
But yeah, I get the ugly cry thing.

Did any other alternates just get the email from CLS, "Alumni Resource Directories Correction," but not the original email it is apologizing for? lol
(But seriously, curious if any other alternates got this email. I assume the finalists did?)

Also waiting for Germany ETA. I think our chances are pretty good this week.
