I appreciate the announcement of the change ahead of time, but I don't feel
like it is safe to update my root hints file based on an email, which could
be spoofed.  It's not that I don't trust you, but someone could spoof your
email.
So I am waiting for the new IP to show up in the root zone or some other
trusted place.  Has it already been published in some place that can be
verified?  (I should have asked this when it was first announced.)
