Interested in this transition, I asked wms how to go about instigating the change. He directed me to ask you for your thoughts on bringing thesite into HTML 5. So, ticket-filers, hecklers, committers, packagemaintainers, admins, and others: How do you feel about having the sitechange forward to HTML 5?Wanting to support IE is the number one reason to use HTML rather than XHTML. IE has never handled XHTML; if you serve it with the right MIME type it can't display it and just downloads the file, and if you serveit as text/html it parses it as invalid HTML. Do we care enough about IEto warrant any action? I don't think anyone would complain if you did the work to switch thesite over to HTML, but I don't see nearly enough value in it to do thatwork myself.
And also getting the site off of XHTML ;-) No one said you had to do the work, and those of us that are interested could tend to it :-P It seems like a fairly simple change since it is PHP-driven.
