Hi Raniere,

Pandoc is a great first project to get your hands dirty with Haskell.
The structure is very simple and doesn't use very many language
extensions.

This is one of the most commonly referred to tutorials:
https://github.com/bitemyapp/learnhaskell

It eventually boils down to recommending this course:
http://www.seas.upenn.edu/~cis194/spring13/index.html

Having looked at the syllabus, it seems that after understanding
everything there it should be possible to understand most of pandoc's
code.

There are lots of open issues on the issue tracker. I've tried to tag
them all appropriately; you can read more about the classification
here.

https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md

Of course, any questions, feel free to ping me or post on the mailing list.

Matt
