Text readers work fine, if a little dull (the pages do need more linking
and semantics, I know ;). The only problems people are reporting are
their crap browsers that don't do stylesheets correctly ;) This isn't an
issue - I'll just make the default stylesheet simpler, and offer an
advanced one as an alternative. Browsers which choke on advanced
stylesheets are unlikely to understand the concept of an alternative
style, so it should work fine (unlike @import).

As far as I'm concerned, I'm sticking with XHTML unless someone can
think of a good reason otherwise. I have made concessions to crap
browsers - such as writing <br/> as <br /> - but really, if your browser
has a problem with the mark-up, change your browser. Seriously ;)

Cheers,

Alex.
