xfs is the filesystem-chardev-syscall in the kernel.
arlad is the userland daemon the implements the afs and uses xfs.
Arla is package including xfs and arlad.

And the arla is still not the filesystemname.
Arla as a filesystem name is not "right", xfs is "right".
Give a better solution.
As proposed ealier, extfs is not good name either, since that is
the first filesystem in linux that proceeded ext2.
