Fresh install keeping /home

Fresh install keeping /home

I am about to embark on an upgrade from 12.04 to 13.04 doing a fresh install. I wish to keep my user data (on /home) and will not be formatting that partition. Common advice seems to be that you can format / however, I am aware that there is also user data in /, eg /var/www and /lib/mysql come immediately to mind.
Is anyone aware of any documentation which lists places outside of /home where user data or configurations may exist?
