I'd suggest using the HTML 5 doctype so it's ready to go in the future, but essentially using HTML 4.01 transitional.

I have not kept up with the developments of HTML 5 except for the canvas tag. Is there a specific feature of HTML 5 you believe we should be using on the MacPorts web site, or are you just talking about changing the doctype? Would changing the doctype to HTML 5's give us better browser compatibility than we have now? I thought we were pretty much as good as we could get now with the XHTML 1.1 doctype, though dropping back to XHTML 1.0 transitional or even HTML 4.01 wouldn't be out of the question. www.apple.com and www.macosforge.org both use HTML 4.01 today.

#20278 was due to an inexplicable issue on the user's end that reformatted and changed the source code of our web site, breaking it; nothing we can do to fix that.

#14062 was due to Internet Explorer not handling XHTML documents served with the correct content type, so we fixed it by serving the incorrect content type to IE only.
