There are currently the GNOME and KDE user interface guidelines that seem to cover pretty much the same set of topics. I agree that it would be useful to have a unified set of guidelines but efforts towards identifying the common parts between the GNOME and KDE guidelines didn't get a tremendous amount of traction in the past. I think some sort of three-way merge of GNOME, KDE guidelines and wyoGuide would be the right way forward. Apart from some very specific areas (button order in dialogs, keyboard shortcuts) I don't think lack of better guidelines is causing major problems, so I don't consider it very high priority. You might be able to find some people at openusability.org that are interested in working on this.
