Why cyanogenmod?  Is it just a personal preference?  Just trying to understand 
if cyanogenmod is more secure opposed to other roms that the apps you listed 
will run on any AOSP rom.

C.L.,
Install RomManager - Cyanogenmod repos are in there to keep it upgraded.

Check the roms out at http://xda-developers.com
