I believe that while the W3C will be disbanding the XHTML working group, this does not extend to the specification itself, which will exist in the HTML 5 specification (see http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/the-xhtml-syntax.html#the-xhtml-syntax). In other words, XHTML will continue to be have the same level of support by the W3C, with XHTML 5 and HTML 5 being two equivalent representations of the markup. Since HTML 5 is not yet a recommendation, it would be hasty to switch to it already. If we switch to XHTML 5 when the HTML 5 specification is released, it would be by far the easiest path that we could take while maintaining support for current standards. It seems that some are simply opposed to XHTML. Is there a particular reason to dislike using it for the site?
