Contributions to Open Source go way, way beyond providing code. Whereas, promotion, distribution, providing help via forums and the like are all perfectly valid contributions to the community. It is not for the faint hearted to try getting your head round the vast code-base of projects like OpenOffice.org (please note the spelling, and the .org at the end is part of the name). @Marc,
