(I'm a colleague of Remi, participating in the project where students
contribute to open source projects)

Maybe it would be the best if the students address the whole
development community (on IRC for simple questions or mailing list for
more complex questions).

My experience is that having a mentor greatly helps students. Of course,
interaction with the rest of the community is still encouraged, but it's
hard for inexperienced students to find their way in a large community
without individual help.

You may see our school project like a mini-Google summer of code. GSoC
mentors do not replace the community, but they are definitely very helpful.
