If the work is being done then why not make the changes to prepare the 
applications for web browsing, too?  Make the commitment to create 
version 2 for each application, one application at a time.  Start with 
the smallest/easiest/least significant so that your learning curve is 
not quite so visible to everyone.  Include the design phase.  If they 
insist on spending the money, energy, and time then give them some bang 
for heir buck!
