Yes the updates are slow because we had some disasters with the
automation but we intend to turn that on again soon.  That being
said you really do need to check that the new data has been published
before you start the wait periods.  That is part of the key rollover
protocol.

Automation will eventually do this checking and waiting for you as
the tools get better but for the moment you need to do it.

Note one really should be doing the same sorts of things for
nameservers when they are being changed.  Configure new nameservers
before adding them (A/AAAA/NS).  Wait for the old nameservers
references (A/AAAA/NS) to expire from caches before decomissioning
them.  Have all the nameservers (new and old) for the zone serve
the same content.  Failure to do this also causes problems.

Note you are not alone here.  Others have done the same sort of
thing before even those that should have known better.
