Hello Everyone I am new to haskell (learning right now). I want to contribute to data structure and algorithm libraries in haskell.Please guide me with appropriate links and how to start with.I have previous implementation experience in other languages. Thanks Abhishek Kumar

Once you've gotten into the language I suggest you explore [Hackage][1] and look for something that tickles your fancy when it comes to contributing. /M [1]: http://hackage.haskell.org/ -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus Increasingly, people seem to misinterpret complexity as sophistication, which is baffling--the incomprehensible should cause suspicion rather than admiration. -- Niklaus Wirth

Thanks Magnus Therning
I came across following libraries
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/graphs graphs
and http://hackage.haskell.org/package/bytestring-trie
and few others.
I am not sure whether these libraries are under active development and I
can find some beginner level bugs there to start with.Can someone please
suggest me some libraries having open beginner issues.
Thanks

Oh, there are so many more on there :)

That sort of thing you're only likely to find on the individual libraries' home pages. So you have to start following links from Hackage to their homes. I suspect only larger projects might maintain a list of beginner-friendly bugs. I do believe the compiler itself, ghc, tries to mark some bugs as easy-to-fix. /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus@therning.org jabber: magnus@therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus The cheapest, fastest and most reliable components of a computer system are those that aren't there. -- Gordon Bell

I remember hearing that Cabal has a lot of labeled easy-to-fix bugs:
