The problem I had was customizing it, as did a lot of other people who posted complaints/questions. Yes, there should be a "minimum skills" list (as you put it) on the homepages of these CMS programs. At the very least, they should include tutorials for novices. The documentation is too vague to be of any real use. If you have the patience, you can wade through the forums to find answers before you post a question. My questions were always answered, but the software was too unwieldy for me. Geeklog’s main interface was very easy to navigate.

If you choose one of the most flxible systems (geeklog imho), You have to acknowledge that it might be the most complicated to setup. You have to know what which system is for and how far the admin's knowledge of certain things like HTML & CSS are required to run a system. We dont have a drivers license for CMS yet, but surely it would be good to have a "minimum skills"-list for each system at their respective hompages.
