User story of the week/month, application of the month, ... It probably wouldn't hurt to have some pointers about what the story should/could include to help the author and to render it even more useful for KDE promotion. The amount of time necessary for reading, selecting etc. the story submissions will be dependend on the number of submissions. Personally, I would like the user story of the month concept, with the three best stories or so receiving a prize. This would also give some time for translations, which could be published at the same time.
