GNU Hello is a perfect example of a package that follows the GNU
Coding Standards.  It's small, shows how to use autoconf, set up
makefiles, use changelogs, etc.

People who are develop or maintain GNU software, can use GNU hello as
a guide when they are setting up their releases.  In fact, why doesn't
the Coding Standards refer to GNU Hello???
