I would say wait 2 months as sometimes patches need patching.
Nortel just released patch SU 21 which caused kaos!!
Here is the example:
SYMPTOMS: ISSUE: After application of BCM.R400.SU.System.021-200905 following programming may be defaulted or
lost:
- nnadmin password.
- Date & Time source
- "Accounts" settings
- "Security Policy" settings
- "Music Source"
- "Routing Table"
- "Scheduled Backup" setting
WORKAROUND: NONE, Restore affected systems and database segments/settings from system backup.

Otherwise only patch when you have an issue, it might fix the issue or you will need to install it anyway to get support from Nortel.

We have a sight we haven patched in 3 years and it works flawlessly.
