Upgrade Gnome on Fedora 4?


I am using Fedora 4, but how can I upgade Gnome to the latest wihout upgrade Fedora? I know Fedora 5 is going to have a newer gnome, but it still won't be the latest.

So How can I upgade Gnome to the latest wihout upgrade Fedora?
Basically, I do'nt want to wait for the linux distribution to include a newer gnome. I would like to upgrade it myself.
