I wish you luck in this endeavor, but I must say...  the nodelist in that InfoPack is a complete disaster area, and any new ZC would have an almost impossible task in contacting any of those listed nodes to inform them about the change-over.  Not sure it could be done, realistically.  You may need to "start over" from scratch by advertising the "rebirth" of the network and taking all-new applications.  I have never seen such a comedy of errors in an FTN nodelist, and I don't think it's recoverable.
