XDG Specification define some directories to store information: Data, Config, Cache, Runtime. We need to figure out how to split the information we have now into this different categories. Also see ticket:10029 for the discussion leading to this wiki.
I am writing some of the data we manage now to find it a good place. Please discuss it in devel@… and/or change the table by yourself.
