[OpenAFS] afs vs nfs

[Neulinger, Nathan]

Please don't. Or rather please don't "compile your own" and leave it at
that...=20

If you're going to go to that effort, please put it into a Wiki topic on
the AFS wiki so that everyone can benefit. A side by side
comparison/pros/cons/etc. would be very useful. That will also mean it
might have some chance of being kept up and maintained.=20
