I was wondering if it might be possible to upgrade specific pieces of OP 1.7 from 2.0?
I'm concerned that the full upgrade from 1.7 to 2.0 might be more involved than I would like, especially for my theme, since I didn't properly sub-theme it. Also, I like the functionality of the install as it is now for the most part, so I'm ok with leaving alone as a whole. But there are pieces I would like to see upgraded.
tpl.php files, modules, OpenPublish core, ckeditor, etc...
Especially, if these newer pieces might improve or stabilize the way certain functions work.
Thank you.

what you can do with your
what you can do with your theme is to copy it and rename all openpublish_theme_function in template.php to yourtheme_function.
Rename openpublish_theme.info to yourthemename.info
Then create a new subline in yourthemename.info:
base theme = openpublish_theme
So if your theme is "signal" rename the folder to signal, replace openpublish_theme.info with signal.info and replace all openpublish_theme in template.php with signal.
Then go to admin/build/modules and enable your theme.
As for the modules, i'dd recommens just to upgrade to 2.0. There's a lot of dependencies in 2.0 and also in 1.7
