Have you already tried to learn it? I started my first extbase extension 
in January and never did any OO or DDD stuff ever, nor did I have any 
documentation besides some stuff from FLOW3 that also applied to 
extbase. Learning extbase itself is not the problem if you are familiar 
with OO coding and DDD I think. So if you are not (like me), you first 
have to learn the concept/ideology behind - and for this there are 
several common books available - also in your language ;). Seriously - 
the biggest questionmarks I had where stuff like "how to do this and 
that the best way in OO/DDD" - and in doubt you can still ask in this list.

Once you got the concept behind, it's not that hard to dig into extbase 
and start a first extension using the kickstarter-MVC, if you have some 
code examples or a example extension and as far as core features are not 
missing like in my case back then ;). Blogexample might not be the best 
demo extension, but you get the basics from it as it's really easy. And 
by now there are already some other extbase based extension available on 
forge where you can have a look at.

So it is more or less "easy" to start playing with extbase - but a 
documentation would help indeed :)
