Ubuntu started as a GNOME distro. Later, there was a subproject to make
Kubuntu (Ubuntu plus KDE). Fedora is primarily a GNOME distro and
they're planning a subproject to distribute a disc with KDE.

I fail to see the difference.

In fact, I think a "Fedora KDE" could be much improved over the existing
situation. Those who are passionate about KDE can form a community
around the Fedora KDE efforts and put their expertise to work. It's
evident from fedora-devel that there are many such passionate users.
This is a good thing.
