That seems to be the story of freedesktop.org in total.

It was, iirc, supposed to be a place for KDE and Gnome to hammer out some cooperative issues, so that programs related to each project would coexist better.

These days it seems like Gnome (or maybe i should say Red Hat?) is running the place, with KDE doing its own thing and glancing over the fence from time to time.

i really don't see how you're getting that impression. We've seen cooperation on shared menus, mime types, dbus, and wayland (among others).
