The OpenVAS team works on a OpenVAS Compendium where a NASL developer
guide should be part of. Currently you find openvas-compendium under
doc/ in SVN, but it will soon emerge as a package of its own.
The NASL devel part is in the works and should see significant progress in
August.
Apart from this the nasl2_reference is of some help.
The best help usually are the other NASL scripts which you could take
as examples.
Best
