Great.  One final thing (forgot to mention & realized is the MOST
important thing): please make sure you take into consideration the
*current* TTL of your nameserver records.  If the TTL is, say, 7 days,
you can remove the records today but you should wait, at least, 7 days
before the cut-off (plus some extra time for misbehaving resolvers).

Regards,
Jorge
