Perhaps I'm weird (OK, s/Perhaps//), but I recall using the Gnus docs
when I first tried Gnus and successfully configuring everything. This
was before I was comfortable with Emacs Lisp at all. These days I work
on Gnus so I'm not impartial :)
I've wanted to use the Gnus assistants (available in theory for years
now) to make the initial setup easier. I simply haven't had time. This
would be a fun project for someone interested in making Gnus users less
frustrated.
