Today a new webcast on the SharePoint Toolbox was released. It’s about the very cool AutoSPSourcebuilder powershell script.
Summary The webcast shows you how to create SharePoint 2013 installer package with bundled Prerequisites (so you can install SharePoint without Internet-Connection) and includes the SharePoint 2013 Cumulative Update December 2012. Language packs or even Service packs could be added, too.
Its available in English and German.
Feedback, questions or tool suggestions much appreciated.
