There have been several updates to OP since July 14th, but I'm kind of confused about when to update certain things. I read this thread which details which modules were patched: http://groups.drupal.org/node/60313. But, for instance, the admin module which they say not to update, has a security release out. When is it ok to update this? I have been able to update other modules that weren't patched in the 2.1 release, but what happens when a new OP release comes out? Do I download and install the full release, or once I have updated my own modules, am I now downloading everything separately because the new OP could potentially downgrade some of my modules?

Each OP release will include
Each OP release will include latest versions of all modules that have safe latest releases.

Recommended approach for updating OpenPublish?
Having just installed 2.2, I notice that core is a version behind and a handful of modules are due for security updates. As such I'm wondering what the recommended approach is for keeping OpenPublish up to date. I'm aware of the patched modules list, but is it generally recommended to wait for an updated OpenPublish release (I notice 2.3 is in the release candidate stage), or are we likely safe to apply core and module updates (esp. security updates) as they are released (except for the patched modules)?
Thanks!
Keeping the patched modules
Keeping the patched modules in mind, I always apply security updates.
