Slackware 14.0 is much smaller than slackware 13.37, why?


I have found that the size of slackware14.0-install-dvd.iso is only 2.5G, which is much smaller than that of 13.37 (4.2G). Are there something removed from 14.0?

The source code was moved to a separate dvd because of space limitations. It simply no longer fit on one dvd.
