how do i install gnome under openbsd?

Right, its a basic one here. I have installed openBSD version 3.1, and gotten Xfree working, after many trial and errors. my next big problem is installing Gnome. I've unTAR'd it to /usr/bin, and, if i remember rightly, a few other places as well. how do i get the console/anything to recognise that there is actually gnome there, and how do i make it work?


also, for later on down the track, will i be able to use a network neighborhood- style network interface, mainly for file and print sharing? the other computer is running windows ME, and thats all set up for a connection with winXP. if there are any specific settings i need to change on the ME box, please let me know, in addition to how to set up the bsd box to connect to it.


Thanks in advance
