James, There may be overlap with docs other people pointed, but I have my slidee deck available online about RSS data you can look at. This was from my talk in local youth community. It's written in Japanese but you can use browser's translation (the entire slides are made of Web stack!) https://slides.jj1lfc.dev/240317-jsnog-lt-3-alt#1 On Tue Jul 15, 2025 at 4:27 PM JST, James Olorundare via rssac-caucus wrote:
Distinguished colleagues,
I am preparing a presentation for an upcoming regional event, and a crucial component is a comprehensive overview of the *DNS Root Zone*. This includes publicly verifiable, up-to-date details on its operational intricacies, particularly within Africa. I need specific information on the *operators of Root servers on the continent, their locations, deployment dates, and other operational specifics*, all of which are good for public dissemination.
I aim to present a clear, concise, and highly technical perspective on this foundational internet infrastructure. I will delve into how these critical components enhance local internet resilience and reduce latency across Africa, highlighting the strategic importance of their presence.
Your assistance in compiling this precise data will be invaluable for a compelling and informative presentation (URLs of relevant docs will be appreciated, as well as any other relevant info).
Thank you
