xhtml, xml, and html..?

hi, all. sorry if this is a conversation long pummeled here, and i've
just missed it (a disclaimer i feel the need to posit since, in some
ways, we all seem tired of html discussions), but i'd be interested
in some of the practitioners' takes on the state of html and the
creative, "artistic" significance of xhtml or xml. in particular
(though not exclusively), does this shift allow for the addition of
finer meta-level analysis/reading of info-organizational/navigational
practices?

just curious what people think…
