Which might cause the page not to render if there's a single error, and switch to HTML? https://docs.perl6.org/perl6.xhtml
There's an error in the HTML,

I guess so, yeah. It was an interesting idea but in the long run there's probably no need for that page to be xhtml.

The Content-Type is set to text/html, so browsers will consider it as regular HTML instead of XHTML regardless of the suffix. Browsers therefore should render it, even if it's invalid XHTML. Regardless, I'd vote for going with the new standard of HTML5 if possible.

We probably need to think about the fate of this .xhtml page. Erasing it altogether might not be a good idea... Redirection, maybe?

There are very few, if any, links to this page outside this site. But I guess it can stay there, no harm. Only it would be interesting to add, at the top, a link to the new page. Can someone do that? Maybe @moritz ?
