I'll happily contribute to this process.  I am occupied at the moment
(and for the next two months - coverting Shapeshifter (WYPUGs engine) to
XHTML), but will supply patches after that time.  Looking at the sites
source now, it shouldn't be too hard as the HTML is pretty well written.

Absolutely - if we use XHTML Transitional (as opposed to Strict).
Strict forces too much reliance on CSS which still varies from browser
to browser (although the vendors do seem to be leaning more towards
standards these days - is it just me?).

Why do this?:  Because XHTML goes a long way towards future-proofing the
site (after all our hard work).  Because XHTML is more cross-platform
than HTML.  Because XHTML encourages well-formed code.

Agreed :) I'll try and help out too. XHTML is very interesting, that's for sure.
Maybe we could go with Strict: there is almost only CSS used in this site, although I'm not sure if XHTML allows things like align="right", etc.
