What is the most straight-forward method to deploy a new workflow definition in Alfresco Community 4.0.e?

I am having a hard time deploying a new workflow definition in Alfresco Community 4.0.e. Alfresco does not have any user interface for this in the Community Edition. I could not find any Alfresco add-on related to this either. I have had a look at a lot of pages discussing this, such as these:

However, I could not get it to work yet. As the BPMS is a key subsystem of Alfresco, I am nearly sure I not using the correct instructions.

What is the most straight-forward method to deploy a new workflow definition in Alfresco 4.0.e? Are there any clear step-by-step instructions, for dummies which I can follow?
