Given http://www.ripe.net/ripe/wg/dns/icann-root-signing.pdf and as far as I know, no response back from ICANN to that, followed by the exchange above perhaps the WG should ask about this situation. (But ask whom?)
After the DNSSEC session yesterday on the ICANN meeting in Paris, I had some lengthy discussions with several board members on this subject. My impression is, that ICANN is faced with serios concerns by the US Gov. I think the right way is to prepare a policy proposal for the Cairo meeting later this year. It might be worth thinking who should prepare the proposal.
If indeed the (ICANN) root server operators have misgiving about the experiment, could someone operating a root server express the reasons?
According the the talk today (slides are available on htp://par.icann.org), there are no technical or operational issues anymore.
