+	---help---
+	  Cowloop is a "copy-on-write" pseudo block driver. It can be
+	  stacked on top of a "real" block driver, and catches all write
+	  operations on their way from the file systems layer above to
+	  the real driver below, effectively shielding the lower driver
+	  from those write accesses. The requests are then diverted to
+	  an ordinary file, located somewhere else (configurable). Later
+	  read requests are checked to see whether they can be serviced
+	  by the "real" block driver below, or must be pulled in from
+	  the diverted location. More information and userspace tools to
+	  use the driver are on the project's website
+	  http://www.ATComputing.nl/cowloop/
