When community member Claire Lotion passed away in 2012, there was a Dot story 
( https://dot.kde.org/2012/05/20/remembering-claire-lotion ) and the KDE SC 
4.9 release was dedicated to her memory ( 
http://www.kde.org/announcements/4.9/ ). Chakra followed suit and named their 
KDE SC 4.9 release series "Chakra Claire".

Maybe dedicating a Calligra release to  Mojtaba would make more sense than a 
KDE SC release because Calligra was his focus, but a dot story would surely be 
due.
