Hi Mike, I'm only asking for interest in joining a learning process, not really about any commitment to set up a root server.
And for further clarification: I'm not talking of DNS servers for subdomains, which a big firm might want to do. I'm talking of alternatives to the ICANN root server. At least two already exist that I know of, the OpenRoot initiative maintains one, and China does too, I am told.
