You are confusing RPSL (RFC2650) with WHOIS (RFC812,RFC954,RFC3912).
and you are confusing RPSL with RIPE-181 syntax. RIPE-181 and its grandchildren is a specification for whois information. RPSL is a routing policy language which uses ripe-181 format. The two are not the same.
Now, I agree on the part that ARIN should be doing RPSL, or even more, just start using the RIPE whois server for serving their data.
Now wait one moment until I bog you down with 20 years worth of legacy paranoia, "Not Invented Here" and useless history about why this shouldn't ever have happened... Nick
