yeah, it's ok. Internet will use the curent NS's in the
root-servers.net until the glue records are changed and then use the
new NS's.
"One TTL time" before your submit the mod's to the roots, reduce the
TTL to 1 hour, do the change, and the up the TTL to 1D or more. This
reduces the effect of caching of the old records to just one hour.
