This can be automated using a simple Emacs macro. François Pinard
also has a Perl script which changes entire ChangeLog in one run (I
should have to lying around).

I don't think we have it written down all the way. The major result
of all this was the automake tool which generates Makefiles as they

packages there is a coding standard which is followed.
