Changing the root doesn't solve the problem of all someone's servers being down. Getting a useful (first priority: up, second priority: in and by the country of service) set of servers into the root does solve the problem. I think that we (PCH) and ICANN, and RIPE, and Randy Bush, among many others, have all put quite a bit of work into trying to see that happen. Starting over doesn't build a better system, just a less trusted one. -Bill
