Which data files? There's these:
http://synchro.net/docs/smb.html
ftp://vert.synchro.net/Synchronet/sbbsdefs.zip

I don't know which specs you're referring to. Of course, there's always the
source code: cvs.synchro.net

subs.txt is an intermediary file format only used by SCFG (for import/export of
subs). I'm not sure if there's a document, but there's certainly the source:
http://cvs.synchro.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/src/sbbs3/scfg/scfgmsg.c
