"The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority -- which coordinates the
internet -- has been prototyping a system to sign the root-zone file
for the last year, but they can't do the same for the internet's top
servers without approval from the Department of Commerce"

Sounds like some work that could be recycled (and save being wasted
if it's decided to have Verisign do the dnssec instead)

Just to be clear, the stuff at https://ns.iana.org/dnssec/status.html will be used for more than the root, e.g., .ARPA, children of .ARPA, IANA.ORG, etc., regardless of who ends up signing the root.
