[Note, due to the sheer number of modules, we may want to break this into smaller tasks, with a few modules for each. This is why I left it as an idea for now.]

The Userpoints module http://drupal.org/project/userpoints has a new API (3.x) that is vastly improved for Drupal 5.x.

The userpoints contributed modules project http://drupal.org/project/userpoints_contrib is a collection of modules contributed by various people.

These modules need to be updated for Drupal 5.x to the new API 3.x.

Resources

The README.txt file included with the 2.15 version of userpoints http://drupal.org/node/204298 has the API for 2.x, while the same file on the 3.1 release http://drupal.org/node/206682 has the new API.

As is this is way too vague. You need a specific deliverables section, which should specify how many and which modules to modify. We give students 1 week to do the task, so try to pick an amount of work that fits in with that (of course, the students have homework, etc. also).

I'd also suggest a few sentences of what the userpoints module is and how this task is useful. I think this will make the task more attractive to students and more likely to be claimed.
