My approach is pretty COL-centered.  Install what you need, fix the 
security issues and bugs as they arise but don't make drastic changes in 
the process.  eg. COL updated packages with the exact same version as 
before, simply applying the appropriate patch.  This made their packages 
pretty static, unlike everybody and their Monopolistic Brother, who have 
had a tendency of breaking more than they fix...
