I am not very fond of the animations in the icon, in fact i used to hate
the red notification in up2date, it was too obtrusive.
As you say in the wiki, going without CDROM will permit sub-icons. I
agree about dropping the CDROM, it has no place here, the update is made
over the network, not from optical media.
As for sub-icons, why not going with the most obvious choices: red
exclamation mark for security updates, yellow or orange exclamation mark
for other updates, arrow for download in progress, green checkmark for
success and red X for error?

I find this question hard to answer. To me the flat icon look plain and
boring and the isometric one not very readable at this small size
(24x24) - but do not understand me wrong, i like very much how the icons
look at the large size (with the 'isometric perspective' as a favorite).
