Hi Tyler, I think that there is at least a “broad consensus” that Debian cloud images should not behave differently than standard Debian installations. However, I think that most if not all cloud images developed here are still in testing phase, even if they can be quite usable and even if they are based on Debian stable. Thus, the fast release cycle is not a design goal, it only reflects the state of our cloud projects in general. More directly on the question of applying directly security updates or not: I think that the simplest is to let users implement it at boot time with tools such as cloud-init. And of course, we have to document how to do, and explain why and when it is most important.
