Could TreeWalk add the OpenDNS servers to its root servers list like ORSC and ORSN.

OpenDNS, http://www.opendns.com/, an alternative DNS service that filters out spam sites and
corrects spelling mistakes in links. There name servers are 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 .

 I just happened to read the FAQ. Mindless copy/paste]

Q: I'm running a local Unix DNS server to cache addresses locally.
   How do I set up my DNS to forward unresolved addresses to OpenDNS?
A: For BIND9, you have a file named /etc/bind/named.conf.options (name
   and path may vary from one distribution to another). Inside this
   file you should have a "forwarders" section. Just change it such
   that only the OpenDNS servers are found within it, else unresolved
   addresses may be resolved by other DNS servers that don't have
   OpenDNS's features. The section should look like:
/
|forwarders{
|	 OpenDNS
|	208.67.222.222;
|	208.67.220.220;
|	};
\

   There are two steps required to use OpenDNS with a local dnscache.

   1. Create a non-empty file named /etc/dnscache/root/env/FORWARDONLY. 
   2. Replace the contents of the file named
      /etc/dnscache/root/servers/@ with the two OpenDNS IP address,
      one per line:
      208.67.222.222 
      208.67.220.220

Again, I have no clue.

no .. and yes; no, since OpenDNS servers aren't "root-servers"
but just resolvers; yes, since if you want to use those servers
you'll just need to open the "named.conf" with an editor, uncomment
the "forward" and "forwarders" lines and replace the "forwarders"
IP addresses with the OpenDNS name servers; stop/start TW and
you'll be using the OpenDNS servers as forwarders
