Not all legal systems need consideration for a contract. It's possible it's only common law countries (US, England, Canada, India etc.) that need it, I'm not sure (I'm not familiar with any civil law systems). If so would that be consistent with your experience?

Well, I'm in the UK, and got the 'consideration' note in my assignments, but nothing actually accompanied it. I thought that was fishy at the time, but what the hell I have a patch to submit. :)

I got a GNU sticker with the reply for each of my assignments, which I assumed was the "consideration".

Oh. I might have got a sticker or something, but if so it was so 'valuable' that I entirely forgot about it :)
