From
When a domain controller is selected to host the global catalog, the KCC on the domain controller that is being promoted uses its discretion to build connection objects from source domain controllers that host the required partitions. These source domain controllers may consist of existing global catalogs in the forest or domain controllers that host writable copies of every domain partition that resides in its forest. The contents of each domain partition are then inbound replicated from source domain controllers that are designated by the KCC. The contents are replicated to the newly promoted global catalog over existing or newly created connection links.

When elevating a DC to be a GC and say there are 3 domains, located say located on 3 continents. Is the GC that already exists in each domain authorative in the elevation of the DC to a GC or does each DC contact a DC in the relevant domain for the GC information?
Make sense?
