Well there was......
http://wiki.videolan.org/index.php/General
But this page seems to have fallen of the wiki.videolan.org structure. 
It's not linked to anymore.

But you'll have to look for them. On Windows they should be in the 
'share' directory of your VLC install.
In MacOSX they are located within the package of the application.
On linux they are wherever they were installed. /usr/local/share or 
where the distro has put them.
