 Why? Have you heard something?

 Hmmm, OK, so by the time we have recieved their signal, their
technology will have improved by 15 years. Thus, they are
technologically speaking, only 65 years behind us (that's not much).
(Assuming their technological progression equals ours.)

 I would delay world-wide notification in an attempt to decipher the
signal. No matter the results, I would then appeal to the scientific
community. This should have the effect of focusing/increasing our
technological advancement such that communication could be established
and ultimately travel and trade. But that's me.
