Which books or resources or libraries should one read to get ready for
the Google summer of code? Also which projects would be easiest to work
on for beginners?
Anything that would make one ready for Google summer of code and
complete their project with ease.
I'm currently taking cs194 from upenn online

Follow the next session of FP101x Introduction to Functional Programming (
https://courses.edx.org/courses/DelftX/FP101x/3T2014/). This session is
almost over, but the material is still available and a member of the staff
has claimed that they will offer the course again, but there is no definite
date.

Most people from the haskell-beginners IRC channel that did FP101x didn't
like it as much as the cis194 -> NICTA course progression. One common
complaint was the tedious homework. Another was that it seemed like a thin
layer over Hutton's book. Exercises are a prominent part of cis194 and
NICTA course - they're not easy either. But those exercises don't feel
unfair, trifling, or trivial in the way FP101x's homework did.
As a result, I don't recommend FP101x. I would like to see more and better
multimedia resources for learning Haskell. Some people take to audio/video
more readily.
