And so on. If some product is not 100% Y2K ready, it does not mean it can't work in 2000 year. And vice versa, btw.
may be, someone from nanog have some statistic showing how people are stopping to use old ripe181 server and begin to use new one? If really a few use old interface, I apologize.
More to the point, if there's such a Y2k problem with this software/protocol/format, then why aren't RIPE (the original authors) running around changing to RPSL?
