Released versions of Fedora gets major updates of KDE and there are 
atleast two different attempts to package KDE 4 for Fedora. It is quite 
amusing that you mention kde-redhat since Rex Dieter and others behind 
that repository are contributors to Fedora and leading the KDE spin for 
the next release.
