I tried to install Decorum (and even the ready-made Play Dominator) but didn't manage. Here comes a (possibly nebulous) account:
1) The ready-made file.
I tried to launch it, but got several Error messages (I can't remember which ones, but I'll check that after I put my laundry to dry). Apparently, files were not all in the place they should have been.
Honestly, I didn't try to look further into the matter. It was late and I was tired anyway. Most probably, if I tried to read *and to understand* the messages, I could end up putting the right files in the right places and Bob's your uncle.
2) Decorum.
Well, I read the instructions but didn't quite understand what I was supposed to do, then I gave up.
Again, I must point out that it was a quick read. Most terms and notions were unfamiliar to me, so that again I didn't put too much effort into understanding the procedure - and if you don't try to understand something you're not familiar with, you can imagine the result.
I will however, definitely get back to it and try to see what I should do. It shouldn't be so hard, especially since you really took the trouble for a step-by-step procedure to follow! Besides, that's how we learn, isn't it? (Just promise me I won't do anything irreparable if things go wrong
)

OK, to summarise things: the reasons why I didn't manage are, on the one hand unexpected errors and not in the right state to try and fix them; on the other hand some unfamiliar procedures which I was a bit scared and too lazy to attempt to follow.
In any case, I'll go back to it during the week-end and keep you posted.
EDIT: launching Play Dominator gives me the following message:
