that depends. If the course is compulsory, it would be a forced contribution, but if you offer such kind of work as one option for an assignment with a significant duration (a master's thesis has already been mentioned), things change. In that case, the time frame would be at least equivalent to a GSOC project, and voluntary committment can be assumed as well. OTOH, we're then quite late in the game - we should find methods of engaging people earlier.
