On the Complex Doom compatibility patchs' filename what are meaning the abbreviations?

I download some compatibility patches for Complex Doom from [bad site] and I'm not sure what means in those filename. I know the Complex Doom and it's add-on LCA, but I don't know, what add-ons have been made for the Zandronum mod.
There are the filenames:
complex-lca-rm-haf-russianoverkill v5.5.pk3
complex-lca-rm-haf-ark.pk3
comples-lca-rm-haf-patch.pk3
Can anyone explain to me which abbreviations what stands for?

It means those are crappy, butchered edits of LCA and RM which should never see the light of day.

Ok, but I'm not curios that what a load of crap or terrible those compat files but that what the meanings of the abbreviations.
I know what LCA means, but I don't see what stand are words:
RM
ARK
HAF
Just I need what these mean.
If there would be a wiki page about Complex Doom add-ons, it would be easier to choose for a megawad, but no, purposely let the player the players like me, which add-on could be for Complex Doom.

Go to [bad site]/wads and search the filenames, you can see who the uploaders are. Then PM them and ask them what all that crap is.

Thank you for the clarification which abbreviation means what mods.
I searched almost all of them on best-ever and Google, but I didn't find the ArkDoom mod. Could you send me in PM the link to that mod?
I don't understand too what the sense to make patches for Complex Doom which could usable in theory with other mods.
