Bluecurve is (at the most basic level) just a theme. It's Red Hat's new
default theme for both Gnome and KDE, so the two look and act as much
alike as they can. It doesn't actually merge the two desktop GUIs, it
just helps ease any confusion, and allows for greather interaction
between GUI specific apps. Thanks to some source tweaking by Red Hat
Gnome apps will (supposedly) run more smothly in KDE than in other 
distros, and vice-versa.

At least, that's how I understand it.
