On October 6, 2009, at the 59th [[RIPE]] Conference meeting, ICANN and VeriSign announced the planned deployment timeline for deploying DNSSEC within the root zone.<ref name="conf">{{cite web | title = DNSSEC for the Root Zone | url=http://www.ripe.net/ripe/meetings/ripe-59/presentations/abley-dnssec-root-zone.pdf}}</ref> At the meeting it was announced that it would be incrementally deployed to one root name server a month, starting on December 1, 2009, with the final root name server serving a DNSSEC signed zone on July 1, 2010, and the root zone will be signed with a RSA/SHA256 DNSKEY.<ref name="conf"/> During the incremental roll-out period the root zone will serve a ''Deliberately Unvalidatable Root Zone'' (DURZ) that uses dummy keys, with the final DNSKEY record not being distributed until July 1, 2010.<ref name="last-puzzle-pieces">{{Cite web | last= Hutchinson | first= James | title= ICANN, Verisign place last puzzle pieces in DNSSEC saga | work= NetworkWorld | url= http://www.networkworld.com/news/2010/050610-icann-verisign-place-last-puzzle.html?hpg1=bn | date= 6 May 2010 | access-date= 17 May 2010 | archive-date= 20 December 2013 | archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20131220202008/http://www.networkworld.com/news/2010/050610-icann-verisign-place-last-puzzle.html?hpg1=bn | url-status= dead }}</ref> This means the keys that were used to sign the zone use are deliberately unverifiable; the reason for this deployment was to monitor changes in traffic patterns caused by the larger responses to queries requesting DNSSEC resource records.
