Sorry, that's a lot of CCs, but I don't know who is on which list.
I'm not sure that we should have the primary master at a "well
connected" site at all. Instead, all the root servers should be
secondaries, and we should have 2 or 3 redundant widely distributed
primaries behind firewalls, that only respond to zone transfer requests
from the other primaries and secondaries!
This is the usual practice at large businesses already.
I suggest that one primary be located in US (anywhere with good security
practices is fine), and the backup be located in Geneva (assuming they
have good security as well)....
