Thank you all for your replies. It helped me to figure out what is
going on.
I think for this project I will see how it goes with -stable and -stable
ports. For other projects I will definitely try -current. Others I
shouldn't need anything more than -release + patches.

For -release, -stable there are hardly any updates during 6 months period
For -current, you could use something like urlwatch to monitor the snapshot

But you want to track -stable OS and packages. There is a -stable ports
branch. I don't know what the criteria is for what is checked in there,
but there are certainly updates related to security issues at least.
Probably depends a lot on the port maintainer.

I used binary packages because that's what the FAQ recommends. Would I be
better off using ports instead? Are the ports updated more frequently?
Yes, you have to use ports for this purpose. Or you can use mtier repos
