1.0.2 is currently a Long-Term Support (LTS) release, but support ends at the end of 2019. 1.1.1 is the new LTS release, and since 1.1 introduced a number of API changes and new features, I think it's worthwhile moving to 1.1.1 (at the latest fix level) as soon as is convenient.

That said, 1.0.2o is fine as well - just keep in mind that at some point you'll need to change to the 1.1 API, and you may need to move sooner to get features you want. As Rich mentioned, 1.1 has some improvements regarding random seeding, so it may be worth doing that now.
