XHTML

I don't really have a problem, just wondering what people on the list think
about XHTML, now that the spec is being recommended by the W3C.  It's great
that it's backwards compatible with HTML 4.0, but I still have visitors to
my site using V3.x browsers (about 10% of all my page requests last year,
smaller percentage toward the end of the year, but still people are using
them).

I'd love to write specifically for the new browsers, but we're a commercial
site, and some of our customers are fairly large.  They did not like it when
we asked them to download a plugin to run some of our applications (not my
idea, and boy did we learn our lesson).  I can't imagine asking any of them
to abandon their current browsers.

Anyway, just wondering what others are planning to do.  I'm going to play
with it, but if it doesn't degrade well, it might be a while before I put it
into production.
