How do I asses the zithromax installation difficulty?

[Handyman]

We don't have a set standard listed here, so it's based on how hard the MOD Author thinks it would be to install.
Usually if it's easy, it will be < 5 minutes. If it's Intermediate, it will be < 15 minutes and Advanced would be > 15 minutes.
