People still aren't forced to learn xhtml (not xHTML), the type of people who used GeoCities wouldn't care anyway, and this is far from the "best leap forward", because nobody cared about GeoCities anyway. And anyway, moving forward, HTML 5 doesn't follow xhtml standards... whether or not it should (it should). No, the "best leap forward" would be for the companies holding themselves back because of worry of breaking their intranets to realize that IE8 has a compatibility mode. That, or actually put time into their infrastructure. This is coming from a professional user interface engineer.
