SR means "Service Release". Quoting this Eclipse wiki page :
Each year the Eclipse Foundation and its projects produce a release on a coordinated schedule. This release is often referred to as the simultaneous release, coordinated release, release train, or annual release of Eclipse. [...] Each release typically occurs in June, with follow-up service releases in September (SR1) and February (SR2).
Emphasis is mine.

Here there is an explanation on the letters on Eclipse packages: http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/build_types.html
SR means Service Release (aka Service Packs)- And is explained here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle#Support
So, SR1 would be the first Service Release for Eclipse Kepler
[EDIT]
There are not Release Notes yet. But here there is a bugfix list it may give you an idea what was fixed.
