I am using it. I think it was created by Ogre team specifically for Ogre, however it has separate Ogre, OpenGL, DirectX 9/10/11 renderers, therefore it shouldn't be a problem to use anywhere.
I'd recommend getting SVN version: http://my-gui.svn.so...c/my-gui/trunk/
There's CMake folder which should create all projects you might need (assuming you know how to use CMake tool).

There's not much tutorial, run CMake, point out CMake folder and press make project.

Well you could try compiling manually...
Copy all .cpp and .h files from MyGUIEngine and put them into separate project. You'll need to set some defines, one to build as library, and second to use FreeType.
Then you need to get FreeType 2, compile it and setup dependencies so MyGUI library links it.
You'll also need to compile renderer you wish to use from Platforms folder. I used separate project for it too.
You'll need a way to create GUI, if you don't want to do that with code build Layout Editor from Tools folder, it'll require some more files from other folders, just copy/paste them till it starts working. I use DirectX9 renderer for Layout Editor, which needed extra define to make it work correctly, not sure about other renderers.
