Then you haven't read those messages in this group that tell you that
there's really no reason to move to HTML _if_ you are already using XHTML
and know how to use it properly. A move in either direction is usually waste
of time (or worse, since people tend to break various things in the move).

Converting existing pages from anything to anything else is seldom useful.
Redesigning and rewriting a page is a different issue, but such operations
hardly make sense if done just to "clean things up" (which so often means
messing things up).
