A few questions about DNSSEC...

I understand the root zones are currently getting signed.  Just for sanity 
sake, should I be able to DIG +dnssec a.gtld-servers.net and be able to see a 
RRSIG record (assume I have a valid dnssec recursive name server with a valid 
trust anchor configured).  Check out the following...

[r...@int-dns ~]# dig +dnssec a.gtld-servers.net
; <<>> DiG 9.6.1-P1 <<>> +dnssec a.gtld-servers.net
;; global options: +cmd

Also, referense the following URL..

https://ns.iana.org/dnssec/root.zone.signed

I assume this data is correct.  Is there a security risk publishing this data?  
I understand DNS is public information but why wouldn't the root be signed 
using nsec3 versus nsec?

Thanks.
