Honestly, I don't know why so many people seem to think that programming is the only way to contribute to the community. This is not the case. Programmers are helpful, but other skills can be helpful, too, and these other skills are much harder to come by than an ability to program. For example, being good at technical support means you can help people who have trouble getting Trisquel to work, or who have problems with their installations.

If you really want to learn to program, that's great; do it. But don't learn to program solely because you want to contribute to the community. If that is your only motivation, it would be much more productive to find out how your existing skills, or skills you are interested in learning, can be used to contribute.
