The Filesystem Hierarchy Standard recommends /srv/www but only one of the big, SuSE, uses it.
Actually it doesn't. For big sites hosting various services it recommends a /srv/<domain>/<service> layout as well. It also makes rights management easier (give admins of domainX full access to /srv/domainX, admins of domainY full access to /srv/domainY and so on).
In fact it is deliberately left to the site admin how to deal with it, which is why no vendor or distribution should touch anything inside /srv other than offering the /srv folder itself.
SuSE uses /srv/www for its packaging Web Apps : http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Build_Service_Installation_Tutorial/Cen...
But I agree hosting domainX Web Apps should be in /srv/domainX.
I don't disagree with suse doing that, but with the FHS recommending /srv/www. My wording was a bit unclear, sorry.
