I think this is what you're looking for:

Gentoo Linux Desktop Configuration Guide

You can find other such documentation here:
Gentoo Documentation Resources

emerge gnome? Haha!! I've been trying to compile Gnome for one week now and the battle is still going on.. I'm very bugzilla aware now.

emerge -p gnome

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild N ] gnome-base/gdm-2.4.1.7-r1
[ebuild N ] gnome-extra/nautilus-media-0.3.3.1
