Yan,
    The mailing list archive was the right place to look.
If you don't know about visualization, then the best place
to start if you plan to use vtk would be with the textbook:
http://www.kitware.com/products/vtktextbook.html
    Otherwise, the Users' Guide is a good place to start
to learn how to install and use vtk:
http://www.kitware.com/products/vtkguide.html

    Once you've got it installed and running, the best way
to learn it is to wade through the many examples in the
Examples directory.

    For getting specific questions answered, the mailing list
archive is the first place to look (use the 2nd form at):
http://www.kitware.com/search.html

    If that fails, then posting to the mailing list is the
next thing to try.
