For B) only a few, strategically located probes would work, but they should measure on a frequent, near real-time basis (and it would help if they are located on stable network-connections instead of a flaky home-user link).
There is a plan to install 'Atlas anchor' boxes that are very stable and can be used both as targets and as powerful Atlas probes.
We are also interested in doing other DNS research/measurements, namely to the amount of DNSSEC validating resolvers with ISP's. Not sure if the Atlas system could be of use there (don't really see why not though).
That should come relatively soon. We are almost done with firmware that can generate DNSSEC queries and send queries through the probes' local resolvers.
