That's not a fair comparison:

* The KDE Plasma Workspace actually *implements* the Galago (notification) 
spec now (and has done so for a while), as does Unity. KDE actually *cares* 
about interoperability with non-KDE software. (KDE has had its own KNotify 
protocol for years. The new protocol was needed *only* for interoperability 
with non-KDE software.)

* According to that very link, it was Canonical who started the efforts on 
improving the spec and KDE who joined them as soon as they learned of them. 
In other words, the projects who objected to the spec as written were the 
ones who did the work on improving it! Neither Canonical nor KDE just 
demanded that GNOME made some arbitrary changes as a precondition to even 
discussing adoption of the spec any further (as YOU personally did for the 
status notifier spec).

KDE's (and Canonical's) behavior for the Galago spec was productive, 
cooperative and seriously aiming at implementing it as soon as possible. 
GNOME's behavior for the status notifier spec was the exact opposite.
