It is all detailed in the release notes:

http://main.slony.info/viewcvs/viewvc.cgi/slony1-engine/RELEASE?revision=1.1.2.13&view=markup

Highlights would be

   - redesign of process structure (watchdog thread)
   - handling of large attributes (memory)
   - log switching
   - reduction of pg_listener use
   - splitting DDL scripts into separate statements
