Hey, Helgi, this is probably aimed at you more than anyone else, but:

Swapping pear back to xhtml rather than html5 - thoughts, objections, ideas?

My main reasons:

   - I can do neat things with RDFa
   - XHTML is stable
   - If there's benefits to HTML5, we aren't using them yet as far as I can
   see, and a lot of the spec seems very much in flux.


The downsides, obviously: xhtml strict + rdfa = hard to maintain, a lot of
effort, etc.

What were the selling points of HTML 5 for you? What have I missed?
