Thanks for your detailed analysis on the matter. Maybe I was a bit unclear
in my previous message. What I meant was that the patch should fix newly
generated files. Of course I'm aware that there are much more changes to be
done to get the website XHTML compliant.
However, if you think it would be too early to apply the proposed patch, I
certainly won't insist on it. You are much more experienced with wml than I
am ... ;-)

Well, I am interested in the migration. I agree that the changes in step 2
should not break anything, but prepare the sources to comply to XHTML. I
guess I'll start by reviewing the existent pages and check them for XHTML
comliance.

In the beginning, there was nothing. And God said, "Let there be
Light." And there was still nothing, but you could see a bit better.
