Hm, good point Dimitris... I wonder whether we should have "xhtml"
targets in Makefile.common. My understanding is the impact of XHTML is
minimal to non-existent for browsing clients, but I may be (as usual)
half (or less) informed. Anyone care to offer a wiser opinion?
XHTML is currently an issue with rather passionate supporters on both sides.
I'm generally a supporter of XHTML, but many of the opposing viewpoints are
valid concerns. Since there aren't any issues with using HTML 4.01, I would
recommend sticking with it on
fedora.redhat.com for now.
I don't see any reason we couldn't use UTF-8 for the HTML documents, and I
would support making that change.
