Moving to HTML5 is good, as long as slightly older browsers (not only IE8 but also the feature phones) can render the page. For IE8 you only have to add a js to be able to apply styling to new elements as section, nav etc. If you use one of the new input methods, like type="number", the browser will default to type="text" if it doesn't know the type. A different thing is the support of audio, video and canvas, but I guess we're not going to use them on a short notice. Makes me think of a nice Cocoon HTML5 sample to render svg...
