To best of my knowledge, that there are no new Chinese root- servers - despite what the press says. And at least we have not seen a drop in queries to our anycast instance in Beijing yet so there even seems to be data to support that...
But what do I know...

Hi Curtis,

at least we can see these domains. Can you see them too, on the
nameservers you are using?

Which does not show that there is a new root-server in China...it merly shows that you have found a server inside china that happens to have a IDN TLD configured. This would be analogue to the testbed that NIC-SE (Swedish registry) was running for DNSSEC until they put this into their production system.
