I hope that you're not asking for a citation to the effect that the 
KDE or Xfce developers _don't_ respond to complaints with "Go away!" 
nor with "Put up or shut up!" and are simply asking for substantiation 
that Gnome developers _have_.

In this latter case, what would you do with the substantiation?  If 
your response would be to shrug or to embrace the acts of rejection,it 
would hardly be worth the effort of providing the substantiation.  If, 
on the other hand, you promise to pour warm, stale beer on one of 
those developers, then I for one will be happy to track down an 
instance. :-;
