So, I spoke to my boss about this.  He is an enthusiastic supporter.

The project, on which I am currently working, involves a new set of
high-availability DNS servers distributed around the world.  The
first of them is slated to turn up very late in 2006.

I anticipate that we should be able to offer a secondary master node,
if people would like, some time early in 2007.  That is, it would act
as an authoritative master, allowing zone transfers to other slaves
if we desired.

In the meantime, I'm prepared to act as another slave server.  The
location I'm thinking of putting it has 30Mb connectivity, 12 hour
battery and on-site generators; but I could put it somewhere with
more bandwidth if people think that'd be necessary.
