The author merely suggests that those 29 or in someway trusted by a lot of people to handle DNS queries. Those 29 also publish information on what properties the service have. If you read the whole page, the author also lists other publi DN

Me too. Still have a couple of books (in Swedish) on the subject. I don't have the heart to throw them away.
