currently all the root admins can update the zone file on the main
DNS server and it will then get pulled to the DNS slaves from there

I guess i have been the one updating it most of the time but the other
admins can too. I also think updates have always been done quickly
And its rare that something needs to be changed in it.
like if between https://fatebeta.ffmpeg.org/ and http://coverage.ffmpeg.org/
you want to setup a fategamma.ffmpeg.org ...

thx
