Hello,
In terms of
"to become a great programmer, you need to read great programs"[1]
what are "great" programs written in Haskell (for your personal definition of great), which source code is freely available on hackage or somewhere else on the net?
I'm personally also interested in your definitions of great; for me, a great programs is defined by one of
* good and well-written documentation (literate Haskell helps a lot) * novel ideas to use functional programming * elegance * showing how functional programming can ease tasks that are difficult to achieve in an imperative style
Maybe we should create a Page on haskell.org (which I would do if I had write-access) mirroring the pages [2,3]?
Kind regards, Michael

The functional pearls are pretty much specifically designed to do all the things you mention. See http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Research_papers/Functional_pearls
