The name says it all: IBM RedBook "Building Dynamic Ajax Applications Using WebSphere Feature Pack for Web 2.0"

A number of good overview articles:

The all inclusive IBM InfoCenter for the Web 2.0 Feature Pack. The Web 2.0 Feature Pack also includes the documentation in the download as well.

The Dojo Toolkit 1.1 makes up the client side programming model for the Web 2.0 Feature Pack.
Dojo Toolkit Site
