I'm extremely happy with 1.5.x so far (coming from vbulletin 4.x). I think you guys are way too smart to go all vbulletin 5 on us. I recall the first time I saw vbull 5, I knew within seconds that company was over with. Keep your customers in the loop, do a lot of end user testing. Coders can often be way too logical and miss the boat when it comes to real world non-techie usability. Anyway... best of luck.
