Officedocs-deployoffice: Executing the (new) Office Deployment Tool

[Pmdls]

It seems to lack this bit of (important) information: after updating the configuration.xml file, one must start the (new) setup.exe from the command prompt (DOS) with the following syntax:
:> setup /configure configuration.xml
-> and then, finally, you'll see something expected like the Office setup splash screen downloading what one can expect beeing the software described in the configuration file (project or visio).
