A root-server at the Internet’s core lost touch with its peers. We still don’t know why. (arstechnica.com)

I can't imagine how this incident you noticed is connected to the root server issue.

As long as there are no relevant changes in the root zone (and according to the article, there were none) this root server issue was likely without impact.
