Hi !

Even if you wait for a month and download the CD then, it will be the same
installation image as the one that was released on 29th April. The original
CDs are never respun to apply upgrades.

Whatever goes through the SRU[1] queue till the time you install it, will be
provided as an update via the update-manager along with any security fixes
that come through.
So either way, you will have to download and install the updates
post-installation as and when they arrive irrespective of whether you
install right away or wait a while.

Regards,
Nandan

P.S. Since 10.04 is an LTS expect 10.04.1 point release sometime in
June/July. This WILL be a respun image including all the updates provided
until that time. So if you wish you could wait till then
