[Kalzium] Datafiles

Hello dear Kalzium developers and users,

IMHO, actually the kalzium sources are quite messy - speaking of placing of 
datafiles mainly. To save you opening a new shell/konqueror tab, here it is 
the actual structure:

kalzium
`-- src
    |-- data
    |   `-- toolpics
    |-- elementpics
    |-- icons
    |   `-- htmlview
    |-- lattice
    |   |-- bcc
    |   |-- fcc
    |   |-- rbg
    |   |-- rpg
    |   |-- simple-cubic
    |   |-- tpg
    |   `-- trg
    |-- solver
    `-- spectrummanager

As you can see, all the data files are in (in)direct subdirs of src. What I'd 
like to do is put all the data files in the data directory, and put it as 2nd 
main folder in the sources root. And, of course, reorganizing some folder in 
a saner way, like putting htmlview out of icons, as IMHO it isn't pertinent).
So, something like that:

kalzium
|-- src
|    |-- solver
|    `-- spectrummanager
`-- data
    |-- elementpics
    |-- htmlview
    |-- icons
    |-- lattice
    |   |-- bcc
    |   |-- fcc
    |   |-- rbg
    |   |-- rpg
    |   |-- simple-cubic
    |   |-- tpg
    |   `-- trg
    `-- toolpics


Ok, next step: the actual data directory. Actually it is:
data
|-- Makefile.am
|-- bg.jpg
|-- data.dtd
|-- data.xml
|-- knowledge.xml
|-- knowledge.xml.todo
|-- spektrum.png
|-- toolpics (directory)
|-- tools.xml
`-- tools.xml.todo

1) data.* : as now we use the data of the BlueObelisk file format, the 
data.xml (and its DTD) is old, and can be safely removed. Any thought?
2) The two *.todo files refer to untraslated items for both knowledge and 
tools. As I'm not a German-speaking guy, I ask to the German guys to do some 
checking on them, like erase the items already translated.

Ok, it seems that I've finished my points at the monent, so I leave to you 
have further comment ;-)

Cheers,
