Drupal, along with others, has made a decision to go with XHTML as the path to the future. I'm sure a lot of Drupal developers are quite aware of recent developments regarding HTML 5. For the rest of us, I found a great introduction to the goals of HTML 5, contrasting it with XHTML 2 as a future path. Until I read this article, I didn't fully appreciate some of the issues involved.

See www.digital-web.com/articles/html5_xhtml2_and_the_future_of_the_web/

I'm not advocating any changes to Drupal. At some point in the future, a re-appraisal of HTML vs. XHTML might be appropriate.

I saw this a while back. It does provide for a unique experience. Both have very good pros and cons. (Well I guess not-so-good-cons.) I'm personally going to wait until I learn a little more before sticking to one side or the other.
