I think this topic has come up so many times recently.

111 = 102 + security fixes
112 = 102 + security fixes + other fixes

So I think the logical upgrade strategy is:

101 or 102 works and want to minimize risk => pick 111
want latest and greatest => pick 112
101 works, 102 does not work and bug not fixed in 111/112 => stay at 101
