Instead of releasing code, we could run an off season services much like most programming text books:

Starting there, we can do coding exercises to write a scripting command that could move the robot so many inches forward, BUT having the command and drives be previous projects?

I like the idea, I would be willing to help put together some sort of interactive program that would help people learn how to code, debug, document, questions, problems (coding exercises), etc..
Anyone who helps with it could set it up so that it is like a virtual mentor, for people that are not fortunate enough to have programming mentors, it could give hinds and ideas, and not actually code things, but teach them how to program, it would be a big project to do this sort of program, but probably worth it for all of the rookie programmers on FIRST.
...It wouldn't be quite giving them pseudo-code or real-code, only hints of how to program, so they do not spend a large amount of time on a simple program, and they learn enough so they can do more complicated code.
