To open the can, here...

We have several spells in the various grimoires that are Web or LAMP based 
apps, and I have a few more that I want to create and submit, but there 
doesn't seem to be a clearly defined "official" way of installing and setting 
up these types of programs, and I really don't want to keep altering spells, 
because we haven't come to a consensus on how they should be setup.

I thought there was a bug for this, but I cannot locate it now.

I think the primary thing here is agreeing on where the files should be 
installed.  Do they belong in /usr/share, or in the setting defined by the 
HTTP server, or somewhere else?  And, if they are installed in a location 
that the HTTP server does not serve pages from, do we modify the HTTP 
server's config file or not?

It seems to me that this could/should be a library of some sort, but I'd be 
happy with just agreeing on some of the details so that I didn't feel like I 
was going to have to keep changing spell files.
