I believe Dcd has been making roms longer (at least publically). Both no2chem and Dcd have worked together to compile the roms to which they both offer.

Dcd's are solid and have been around for quite some time. His roms usually have more ram to boot and come equipped with cosmetic touches such as dialer, comm manager, calculator, Today Screen, etc. In addition his roms are very fast, stable and bare which leaves plenty to add your own personality. Also, his roms are available in specific carrier-based packages whereas no2chems are Sprint based and data/connection labeled.

no2chem's rom includes many of Dcd's core rom features and but excludes some of the cosmetic appeal. However no2chem pioneers many of his self-made applications (nueLED, nueMMS, nueAudio, etc) and includes these within his roms. His rom do not boot with as much available ram but have a few more applications & features which (in my opinion) negate the offering of available ram on boot.

I have used both with equal enthusiasm, fondness and level of success but I have been using no2chem's rom almost exclusively since his 5044 release; currently running 5051 with great success...
