MCTS Charter Member Certification?

I passed 70-620 last month and this exam became available on January 4,
2007.
However, I did not receive the Charter Member Certification when I received
my MCTS welcome kit. Is there something wrong?

From FAQ:
Charter Members are those individuals who are recognized as the pioneering
group who have achieved one of the New Generation of Certifications in the
first six months of the exam release date. Charter Members are recognized
with a special letter of recognition and also the Charter version of the
certificate.

Normally this is a limited number of people (first 500 or 1,000). I am
not sure about the 6 months thing.

I chartered several certs both MCTS and MCITP. I got charter certs for both
levels.

However there are two certs which I chartered (MCTS: Microsoft Windows
SharePoint Services 3.0: Configuration and MCTS: Microsoft Office SharePoint
Server 2007: Configuration where I never got anything.

Its a charter for the MCTS Program not the Individual Certs. And you can
only be a charter member once. So if you got in the Charter for the MCTS on
SQL 2005 likeI did well more than a year ago that means you were one of the
first 5000 MCTS Certification holders period. No matter which designation
you may have received.
