Yes (Rex Dieter is still maintaining it), but it is not going to provide KDE 3 
for Fedora 9 and later.

The kde-redhat packages have been mostly merged with the official Fedora ones. 
Kde-redhat now provides backports of the Fedora 9 KDE 4 packages for Fedora 8 
in the unstable repository. There are also KDE updates (newer KDE 3 releases 
than the ones included) for RHEL.

But downgrading KDE was never kde-redhat's job. :-) It would also be 
impractical: version numbers, package obsoletions etc. all work one way only.
