Well they have similar issues as us when it comes to things like dev-bleeding, how to attract new people, retain people who are here, how to minimize the threshold to get into KDE/GNOME and in general make our communities more pleasant places to be in, work in and be part of. That issue balloons into things like "What technical methods do we employ to make contributing code easier" and things like "How to make sure our community remain visible" and to "How to make sure the community remains independent from companies and sponsors". One proposal was to see if the people in Gnome working on that issue (Sriram for example) could talk to people withing KDE who does the same thing (Like Lydia) to at least compare notes. Why do twice the work independently when we can help each other out. Other issues was how to make certain the drawbridge is down between the Gnome community and the KDE community. The fact that we know fairly little about each other in comparison how theoretically close we are (and practically close we could be) shows that we should see if we couldn't make that communication simpler (outside of bugreports that tend to go into slugfests).
