I think it is not visible to most people. I missed it. Where can I get it?

Perhaps there should be a direct link on the front page mingw.org (like 
setup.exe on Cygwin's page).
And the Download button on sourceforge/projects/mingw could point to 
mingw-get gui instead of mingw-get-inst.

On page http://www.mingw.org/wiki/Getting_Started the section "Graphical 
User Interface Installer" points to mingw-get-inst instead of a 
mingw-get gui.

On page http://www.mingw.org/wiki/InstallationHOWTOforMinGW I would 
totally remove the section "Manual Installation". Only point to 
mingw-get (gui). Manual installation is of the past.
