I'm not very big on XHTML.  (Although it's Jesse's call, of course.)

A few weeks ago I did some reading up on it, and basically the *only* 
advantage to xhtml is that you can put it through an xml validator 
instead of a html validator.

One downside is that for some browsers to properly detect and render 
xhtml you need to send it as a special mime type.  application/xhtml+xml

Another is that XHTML is *not* a superset of HTML.  For various reasons 
(cough, sgml, cough), legal xhtml constructs are not legal HTML constructs.

In my world, I've decided to stick with HTML 4.01.  Uppercase tags vs 
lowercase tags?  I don't really care.
