Composition review at Shawnee?

Hello, good fellows,
 
I wanted to discuss one point mentioned in my profile. Back in early April or late March, I submitted a choral composition at Shawnee Press for review. Ms. Noelle Chave, who answered my telephone calls and e-mails, informed me that it will be approximately one month's time before the artistic director will finish reviewing it and respond back. it's now a little more than 2 months later, and I haven't received an e-mail from him (the artistic director). For Shawnee, does that mean the work has been decline? Or will the director respond regardless? If anyone has any information in regards to this, please let me know.
 
Thanks ever so greatly!
 
Regards,
Tony

It's been my experience in getting my music published that one month would be an extremely fast turnaround time for any publisher. Usually I've experienced a minimum of three months before I've heard a response (other than acknowledging receipt of the submitted piece), and sometimes much longer.
