So why deny AXFR from roots, then?

AXFR constitutes a significantly greater load on a name server than simply answering normal queries. As such, independent root server operators may decide to restrict zone transfer from their root servers.

BTW, did the root zone actually change today (2008062500)?

VeriSign regenerates the root zone twice a day regardless of whether there are root zone changes.
