The one I started still seem pretty good to me (although unfinished)  :-) :

http://kde.ground.cz/tiki-index.php?page=KDE%2C+the+integrative+desktop

The only thing I am concerned about hosting it on freedesktop is that we 
might not be able to be as liberal as we wish about what we display. If you 
call it Cross Toolkit Development and the whole thing is about improving 
KDE, that's not good.

I am not aware of any gtk themes for Qt, nore kparts-bonobo related thing.

I am under the impression that Gnome people run no KDE application, and are 
thus less concerned about integrating KDE than we are about integrating 
Gnome or OpenOffice.

My personal feeling is that what can be used outside KDE should be hosted on 
fd.org: fuse and QtGtk. The other things (Qt themes for Gtk, icons, ...) 
should stay in KDE as they are really KDE specific. On the other hand, that 
would mean splitting the hosting which is never good.

All in all, I would prefer to keep it in KDE until a similar effort appears 
on the Gnome front, which would give us a hint that we should move it to 
fd.org. But, if we move directly to fd.org, we are giving an incentive for 
creating a similar effort on the Gnome side.

I need to think more about it to have a clear opinion.
