+ZnapZend is a ZFS centric backup tool to create snapshots and send
+ them to backup locations. It relies on the ZFS tools snapshot,
+ send and receive to do its work. It has the built-in ability to
+ manage both local snapshots as well as remote copies by thinning
+ them out as time progresses.
+
+The ZnapZend configuration is stored as properties in the ZFS
+ filesystem itself.
+
+Does not require zfs but is mostly useless without it.
