There are. Check Peter Dambiers messages for details.

As for you claims of data to support this - show us.

First - you won't notice any drop in queries because the china roots 
refers all queries concerning NON-CHINESE TLDs back to IANA.

Second - you will notice an increase in what you guys at the roots call 
I think illegal or erroneous TLDs - which see

Incidentally - since my article was written I have not seen any further 
studies concerning root traffic from CAIDA or anyone else.  In fact root 
operators don't really share much with the world - do they?
