I've heard a lot more reports from people running source, but this is

IMHO source is better for updates. With binary you sit around waiting for
packages to decide a patch or stable milestone is worthy of dropping new
packages. With source you can get things when they hit stable branches
upstream. I did exactly one binary deployment, waited forever for a patch I
needed, and swore off doing it that way forever more.

Operations are the same either way really.

The deployment docs are quite good. There isn't really a good ops guide
though. This is true of bare metal as well though ( in process of being
addressed presently). The IRC channel is terrific though, so if you hit a
wall, pop on there and ask for help or email this list with a tag like you
did here.
