Axis2/C and WSF/C, user and developer resources
1.WSO2 WSF/C Documentation
This is the documentation that comes with WSF/C release. I would say this is one of complete documentation. It covers all packages that ships with WSF/C. Under this documentation an user can find several subtopics.
I will discuss more about this on later in this post. This documentation carries most important information on using Axis2/C.
Pointer to Rampart/C manual, a user can get an idea about Rampart Architecture, It's interface with Axis2/C and more details on Rampart inside.
Sandesha2/C manual has information on engaging and using sandesha/c with Axis2/C.
wsclient is a command line webservices client which uses request/response pattern. It can use for SOAP messages as well as REST messages. One can find more information on it's features such as WS-Addressing, WS-Security, MTOM and etc.
2. Axis2/C Manual
I think this is one of my favorite document 
, the most up to date well written and carries lots of important information on using Axis2/C. For a very beginner it has a quick start section. Following that section, one can write a simple service and client. It is the best place to get start.
More information on services and client api's also presented with sample codes. All important functions explained under this section.
If anyone need to deploy Apache Axis2/C in Apache2 HTTP server,there is a special section dedicated for this in the manual.Under this section, information given on installation, configuration and deployment of mod_axis2 with Apache2 web server.
Along with these information, there is a section for WSDL2C , code generation tool. Details on generating both services skeletons and client stubs are well explained. There is a pointer for basic guide lines on Java tool too.
Other than these information, there are many important information on using WS-Addressing, sending attachment with MTOM, Deploying Axis2/C with IIS server, using SSL client and many more.
3. WSO2 Oxygen Tank
This for provide Oxygen for SOA and Webservices Developers There are lots of articles, tutorials, knowledge base articles from very beginner to any experts. More than 90% of Axis2/C developers and almost 100% of WSF/C developers has contributed to provide valuable materials.

This is the best place to read and understand the in and out of Apache Axis2/C , Apache Rampart/C, WSO2 WSF/C and etc. There are lots of articles on various other projects too such as WSO2 WSAS, WSO2 ESB and so on.
4. Mail Archives
I could say there are four main mailing list archives that one could find important information. I would advise anyone who having question regarding Axis2/C and WSF/C to search on these archives first. There could be a good chance, that question asked early in the mailing list.
5.WSO2 WSF/C Forum
Not to offense, but for the people who lazy to ask question on mailing list, WSO2 WSF/C Forum is always available. WSF/C developers always keep an eye on it. If you you having any question on Axis2/C, Rampart/C, Sandesha2/C or Savan/C please feel free to ask on WSO2 WSF/C. Although there is not much activity happen in WSF/C forum, it is one of the best place user/developer can utilze.
6.Mailing Lists
Most active resource available for any user. As mentioned in the mail archive section four main mailing list available for any one to use.
In this post , I summarized most important and effective resources that any Axis2/C and WSF/C, user and developer can use. All are welcome to share information , comments, materials and etc with us.
