PIR has a page dedicated to DNSSEC:

http://www.pir.org/dnssec

It also has a blog:

http://pir.org/blog/?feed=rss2

And press releases:

http://www.pir.org/news/press

Of course, also possible would be mails to various DNS-friendly lists
(like this one).

OTOH, one could argue that now that the root has been signed a while,
getting a DS put into the root zone is now a non-event, and hardly
worthy of an announcement. ;)
