The man page is fully up to date. And there is plenty of other 
documentation directly linked from the landing page of the ZFS-on-Linux

See previous comment about Debian induced solipsism. Thinking that 
anything not in the Debian repository is not worth using is analogous to 
thinking that something must be true because you read it on the internet.
If you are at that level of advancement when it comes to systems 
administration you need to progress further first, at least to the point 
where you are comfortable with straying off the straight and narrow.
