I second this motion. xhtml 1.1 only introduces two incompatibilities 
with HTML 4.01:
        1) lang attribute replaced with xml:lang
        2) added ruby annotation tags

Those are easy enough to avoid. Other than that, xhtml is just a less 
lenient version of html.

Also, if you have an xml compatible browser (like IE or Mozilla) xhtml 
documents will be parsed faster than html documents.
