Someone proposed an addition to the FHS of a /srv directory for such
things ("network services"), which was basically user controlled, but
that the vendor could stick things in for defaults (/srv/cvs, /srv/www,
and such). It wasn't really written quite right, so it got dropped at a
late stage and didn't get amended and put back in. You could use that.
/var/local is another possibility.

Cheers,
