I'm going to disagree with the last two comments. Now is exactly the time to make the changes. If they are looking at 1.7, they probably have some amount of issues and bugs that they aren't able to fix themselves. We're assuming they don't have a lot of development resources, maybe they do. So I would recommend moving to 1.7 (and as Jeff points out, leave the 1.5 path in place) and test to determine what does and doesn't work. Size up the effort. And then determine the real answer. We all have a natural risk adversion to upgrading... As he originally writes "with minor changes" so they are at least reasonable enough to know that a change won't be zero cost.
Just my random thoughts....
