DNSSEC signed answers from L root server

The first root server (L) has started to serve up a signed version of the root zone. This is the first step in the live testing that will lead to a production signed root by the middle of the year.  For information on the status of the root signing process visit: http://www.root-dnssec.org/

The root is intentionally publishing bogus signing keys, so the answers are not verifiable. Once the testing completes the actual keys will be published.

Current DNSKEY set advertised:
