Btw, the main point in my posting was that *changes* does not only involve adding of TLDs to the root zone, but also changes of NS records, DS records and whatever else. All of those changes passes the same channels when the data moves from IANA via signing to the root server operators. And changes to the root zone happens literally every day. For example, on Jan 13 zones BY, GW and SD changed their name servers.
