Anyone know how to tie the version of that document to the current version 
that's in FreeBSD?

Overall, it's a great reference.  Already answered a number of questions.

Here's another Sun doc that I used to get started:

http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/download/Community+Group+zfs/demos/zfsdemo.pdf

It looks like it's for sales engineers who are going to do a demo of ZFS, 
however it works quite well as a quick-start.  It describes the basic 
concepts well and walks you through creating some pools.  It's hands-down 
my favorite "Intro to ZFS" doc that I've found so far.

Thanks,

Charles
