New WCS Install - VMWare

Quick question (I hope): I'm installing WCS for the first time on a VMWare server. The server and Vmachine all meet the requirements outlined in the WCS documentation, however I'm unsure which version of WCS I should start with.

4.2.111.0 MD is shown as the latest release but there are several ED versions up to 5.2.130.0.

I am running 4404 WLC's with 1131AG Access Points. The WLC's are running 5.1.151.0.

Which would be the best, stable version to go with?

Stability of WCS is not an issue I generally worry about. If a controller goes down, you lose your wireless. If WCS goes down, you reboot it and go get some coffee and nobody knows the difference.

In other words, I always install the most current version of WCS which will support my controller version.

You can definitely go with 5.2.130.0 on the vmware server.
