the missing domains i give as examples are heavyweights
unlike the bluenews.com you mention.
(and as we learned from answers to questions from karl auerbach,
a "stealth" server is replacing a.root-servers.net
as "master server" for the legacy root servers.)
sorry about the initial cross-posting, i thought there
might be some urgency in the matter.
kind regards philippe, InternetRoots.com
