Thank you for your answer. Yes, I should probably get online on IRC and ask there my questions. That will get me going, the only problem is that others with the same questions just like mine won't have access to the answers like they would if I ask on the forums. Thank you for the link, I already read it and tried to follow it. It gives an intro to datatypes, explains some concepts and basics. But if he only would have created a really small datatype (some hello world in datatype realm), given the source codes, it would have been a lot better. Of course, the information as it is is very good, but incomplete. It would help someone understand the complexity of datatypes, shows some directions for what to do next, but that is it. What I like in a tutorial is to read, copy/paste and check the results. Then make my modifications, read again to understand where I am doing wrong and recheck the results. And so on until I finally build a code that suits my needs. But I do need a place to start and, to be honest, I had no idea even where the built in modules/datatypes were located (that until learning the Coding standards). Maybe a tutorial like file structure in eZ Publish would be nice, as there are a lot to learn.
