Timeline of Root server deployment
In November 2002, APNIC announced a new project to establish a number of new Root server sites into the Asia Pacific region. The sites in this project are funded partially or fully by APNIC, but operated as "anycast" mirror copies of existing Root servers, by the applicable Root server operator.
