There is a rather dated developers' guide at plone.org:
http://plone.org/products/archetypes/documentation/old/ArchetypesDeveloperGuide/index_html

I would recommend playing with ArchGenXML, seeing how it works, and
using it to either:
1. Generate all your classes and relationships
2. Learn how things are done so that you can write AT-based stuff from scratch.

The developers' guide that I mentioned above has been very helpful,
especially when writing page templates.

Also, there's an Archetypes-users mailing list for these kind of questions:
http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/archetypes-users

The #plone channel on irc.freenode.net is also very helpful when
dealing with Archetypes.
