  Not really relevant, but:

  It depends on your background.  If you have a lot of mail backgroup,
UUCP is fairly easy, because you now how things are supposed to fit
together.

  If you have a lot of networking background, and know the different
routing protocols and their features, configuring gated is pretty
straightforward, because you know what you want to do, you just need to
describe it.  If you don't have exposure to the various routing protocols,
and some understanding, you are pretty much dead in the water.
