This can be somewhat tricky. For me, it fails to launch from within
the MSYS shell as well as a sh.exe started via Window's cmd.exe.

It does start, however when run directly through cmd.exe and also
starts up fine from the gis.m menu.

Yes, sort of. I am making good progress and have succeeded in setting
up a complete compilation environment for GRASS and QGIS on MinGW.
Hopefully, I will be able to push a first beta version onto some
webserver by the end of the year or early next year.

I will look into creating an installer for Windows. This should not
be hard to do. In fact, I think Windows provides pretty much everything
you need for a .exe or .msi installer package.
