FWIW I used autorpm a long time ago and abandoned it for autoupdate.
I am still using autoupdate here on several machines but I an mow in
the process of converting to yum. Each has it's advantages and disadvantages
but for me yum is the easiest and most reliable updating program I have found.
Also yum is quite capable of doing "hot upgrades". I have tested this a couple
of times and so far it works as advertised. It only requires a reboot to switch
kernels.
