Dear Stef,
you need to put the files under
[texmf]/fonts/fea/<whatever> (maybe fonts/data/<whatever> would also work)
where [texmf] needs to be a valid tree under your current root of TeX
installation or TEXMFHOME ("texmf in your home folder).
My ConTeXt installation is under ~/context/tex, so I could use
~/context/tex/texmf-local/ or ~/texmf as [texmf].
~/context/tex/texmf-fonts/ is also fine, but texmf-context or just
texmf are not since files might be deleted from those trees during
upgrade.
My MacTeX installation could use /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/ or
~/Library/texmf.
The idea is to make files under TEXMFHOME visible to any given TeX
installation you might use, while TEXMFLOCAL are local additions to
the files provided by distribution (easier to accidentally remove when
you reinstall TeX). I often put files under texmf-local.
Of course you need to run mktexlsr and/or mtxrun --generate after you
add new files.

PS: I hope that you were talking about ".fea" files. What exactly do
you mean with "unix standard path"?
