RE: lowercase tags required in the future?

This document states that XHTML tags and attributes have to be lowercase.
What about values for the attributes?

ie is
	<td bgcolor="#6666FF" valign="MIDDLE">
illegal, and required to be written as
	<td bgcolor="#6666ff" valign="middle">

Is this the case for all values, or are hex values exempt?
