Not trying to be contrary or anything. Just note that, while not the target audience, we ourselves may find ourselves using the cd, perhaps where forced to work on a windows box. Sure, we know where to get these programs, but if all our favorites are on one cd, all the merrier. I know I have in the past used the sss cd to install gVIm on windows machines where a decent internet connection was lacking.

I think it would be cool to have the "beyond the basics" stuff on a second CD or a forked project so it doesn't trip up new users.
I agree with Von, a couple of small utilities that are just on the disc, and don't show up in the friendly installer, but rather they are hidden in a bonus goodies file would still be useful.
