Who updates their WP blogs to current versions?

Havent updated mine in 12 months probably, is it important to upgrade to the latest versions? I previoulsy avoided it as some people were experienceing incompatibility issues with RSS feed agregators etc. on their blogs.
thanks

I've done it a couple of times but they seem to come out with a new version every 5 minutes so I stopped updating

I've never done a WP upgrade and don't plan on it unless my host tells me I have a problem with it. To many chances to fuck up something I have working exactly the way I want

I've upgraded to 2.1 on one, it was pretty stressy. Not sure if I'm willing to go further with it. Although if I start a new blog I'll be using the latest version.

i've upgraded using Fantastico's automatic upgrade panel. it removes all your plugin code. have to reinput all the code. other than that no problems.

Must admit I avoid it -- which means occasionally I get hacked. But then just restore from backup.

Plugins and custom themes are always the issue -- upgrades break that very often.
