I can only tell you from previous postings that the signature team is small and 
receives thousands of samples from a variety of sources daily, and even though 
some are processed by automation, all signatures still have to go through a QA 
process before release and database updates are normally six hours apart. 
Expecting a response in six hours is totally unrealistic. Perhaps someone from 
the team can give you a better estimate, but my guess would be at least 
twenty-four hours will pass before you see your submission being addressed.
