I like to keep reasonably up-to-date with distributions I am running, so would like to update to Centos-5.2 as and when it is released.

you will be up to date simply by running 'yum update'

When 5.2 is released, those updates will be installed

Are you saying that simply running "yum update" on a Centos-5.1 system will convert it to Centos-5.2, as and when that is released?

Yup

All upgrades / updates in the major versions (5.0 -> 5.1 -> 5.1) will happen automatically when you run yum upgrade, and when it's officially released for updates. And I'm almost certain most, if not every, other Linux distro also works like this
