dspreadbury has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/smufl: == Updated recommendations for font-specific metadata locations on Linux to follow XDG Base Directory Specification == Reported by @JanClaeys: Font-specific metadata locations for linux (as defined in [`font-metadata-locations.md`](https://github.com/steinbergmedia/smufl/blob/master/font-metadata-locations.md)) should follow the [XDG Base Directory Specification](http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/latest/). Specifically, system-wide font metadata files should be searched in `$XDG_DATA_DIRS/SMuFL/Fonts/<fontname>/<fontname>.json` (which can be multiple locations), while local metadata should be in `$XDG_DATA_HOME/SMuFL/Fonts/<fontname>/<fontname>.json`. See the XDG Base Directory Specification for more info. (Also, I haven't read the whole SMuFL specification, so their might be other places than `font-metadata-locations.md` where this applies.)
