Hi Simon,

I think that http://www.paraview.org/paraview/help/documentation.htmlcontains
links to all of the available resources for ParaView. Depending on
what you are doing with ParaView the user's guide (book), wiki, or Doxygen
generated API documentation are all great resources.

There are also training courses, support and consulting with Kitware and
this mailing list. The Source can also provide great updates to new features
in ParaView, and other Kitware projects/products.
