Why should it comply with LSB?  Last I've heard OpenACS is *not* a Linux-only application.

/var/www is probably standard, but again -- on Linux.  *BSD will likely have it inder /usr/local/aolserver.  Windows will have it anywhere :)  Dunno about OSX.

To cut it short -- as long as you provide a reference point in a tutorial/user doc ("For the purpose of this tutorial we will install AOLserver under /some/path and OpenACS data will reside under /openacs/server/data/path") would it be difficult for a user to follow?
