[UPHPU] CMS Opinions?

[thin]

And the Velda worte [among other things], about Word Press:

"Best of all.. - As long as you mod it properly, it is a piece of cake
to keep updated"

Anyone [Velda and/or others] wanna expound on this notion of
"properly"?  Examples/Pointers/Tuts?  I've intentionally steered clear
of WP, but have decided to reconsider it. :)
