Question Global Entry for German Citizens

After all these postings i did some research I remembered this news release a while ago:
http://www.dhs.gov/ynews/releases/pr_1271334386754.shtm

Quote: Under this statement, the United States and Germany will develop processes for qualified citizens of either country to apply for both the United States’ Global Entry program and Germany’s Automated and Biometrics-Supported Border Controls (ABG) program, which each use biometrics to identify trusted travelers.

Now, i assume this would mean German Citizens would become eligible for applying for Global Entry?

Are there any experiences on how much time will pass before this actually gets implemented? Does anyone recall how long it took between announcement and implementation of this for Dutch Citizens?
