::* February 2009: the ICANN Board requested a study be undertaken to examine the impact of the inclusion of a number of new technologies (IPv6, DNSSEC, and IDNs) and the potential addition of significant numbers of new top-level domains to the root of the DNS as the stability of the DNS might be at risk if changes and additions were pursued without caution. two studies were performed, one focusing on the impact of the new technologies and TLD additions on one root server, the other taking a wider view and looking at all processes associated with the management of the root system.<ref>[https://archive.icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/summary-of-impact-root-zone-scaling-06oct10-en.pdf Summary of Impact of Root Zone Scaling, 10/06/2010, ICANN Archives]</ref>

::# The deployment of IPv6, DNSSEC, and IDNs to the root system has had no significant harmful impact.
::# The deployment of IPv6, DNSSEC, and IDNs to the root system has had no significant harmful impact.
::# With a cap of less than 1000 new gTLDs per year being added to the root zone, normal operational upgrade cycles and resource allocations will be sufficient to ensure that scaling of the root, both in terms of new technologies as well as new content, will have no significant impact on the stability of the root system.<ref>[https://archive.icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/summary-of-impact-root-zone-scaling-06oct10-en.pdf Summary of Impact of Root Zone Scaling, 10/06/2010, ICANN Archives]</ref>
