Note, this is a completely unofficial reply, as all this stuff was set
up long after my time ...

You can find the key on ICANN's web site at:
https://data.iana.org/root-anchors/. They key looks like this:

pub   1024D/0F6C91D2 2007-12-01
Key fingerprint = 2FBB 91BC AAEE 0ABE 1F80  31C7 D1AF BCE0 0F6C 91D2
uid   DNSSEC Manager <dnssec at iana.org>
sub   2048g/1975679E 2007-12-01

I just checked and it's available at hkp://pool.sks-keyservers.net at
least. Also FYI, PGP keyservers are write-once, they never delete keys,
signatures, or anything else.


hth,

Doug
