"YafaRay's predecessor YafRay (Yet Another Free Raytracer) was written
by Alejandro Conty Estévez, and was first released in July 2002. The
last version of YafRay was YafRay 0.0.9, released in 2006. Due to
limitations of the original design, the raytracer was completely
rewritten by Mathias Wein. The first stable version of the new
raytracer, YafaRay 0.1.0, was released in October 2008."

So obviously, it's a replacement. Just deal with as if it were a name change.
