Nice project. I haven't seen it before, so I gave it a try. But with some smaller problems...
I've copied most of the filedefs into .config/geany/filedefs and all colorschemes to .config/geany/colorschemes. After this, I started geany (0.20 on ubuntu karmic).
Because I have never used a colorscheme before, it comes up this "Standard". And this isn't the same as the style before! Most hilighting is gone, comments are red and all remaining text is simply black.
The other schemes seems to work as expected.
What's my mistake?
And why are all "doc-commects" equal to normal comments?

None, well, except you should probably copy *all* of the filedefs into ~/.config/geany/filedefs, but it's not the issue here. When you select "Default", I don't think Geany is resetting the styles to some hardcoded defaults as you would expect. When I get some time, I will look into the Geany source and see why it's not using hardcoded/compiled-in defaults (or at least see what it's doing at all). For now, if you want to use the default style, I guess just remove the filetypes.* files and colorschemes.conf files you put under ~/.config/geany. The other way is to make a new colorscheme with the same styles as Geany's defaults, which isn't that hard, and is explained in the Geany Manual. Just have a look at one of the existing themes, it's pretty straightforward I think:
https://github.com/codebrainz/geany-themes/blob/master/colorschemes/alt.conf
If you don't mind sending it to me if you do make this, I'll add it to geany-themes until I can dig into Geany's source a bit more.
And why are all "doc-commects" equal to normal comments?
This is how most of the themes I ported were doing it, but if you don't like it, send me the way you like them and I'll probably add them to geany-themes as long as the style you choose fits the colorscheme. You can do this by editing the style named 'comment_doc' in the colorschemes/*.conf files. For example, alt.conf is one of the few using different colors for doc-comments:
