title: IE (7 and 8) and HTML5
body: <p>I work in a big company that runs several massive sites. All of them XHTML 1.0.</p>
  
  <p>Yesterday I was arguing with the CTO because I suggested we should start using the html5 doctype. In his opinion we should stay on the "safe side" till html5 is completely out.</p>
  
  <p>So supposing we're <strong>not</strong> implementing any new tags like &lt;section&gt; yet but simply adapt to the html5 doctype in order to be ready to implement new features as soon as html5 becomes final.</p>
  
  <p>Are there any drawbacks? Something I should keep in mind? Any experiences?</p>
  
  <p>Is there a "stable" way to work with html5 and IE 7 and 8? (we're not supporting 6 anymore).</p>
