DURZ published in root - you ready?

[Danny McPherson <danny () tcb net>]

Figured I'd drop a note here reminding folks of the 
signed root zone publication timeline, which calls for 
L root to begin serving a 'DURZ' the "week of 1/25/2010" 
-- which is now - depending on what timezone you're in:

<http://www.root-dnssec.org/2010/01/14/status-update-january-2010/>

If you've not evaluated the *systemic effects* of a signed
root zone in your operating environment (prepped operations 
and helpdesk staff, your own resolvers, etc..) I'd strongly 
suggest you do so ASAP.  

If you're not concerned because you're not signing anything - 
do note that 'systemic' is the operative word above, as this
will impact you, whether you make any explicit changes in 
your environment or not. 

G'luck,
