I took a quick look at the makefile and related fines in the 
appl/template directory, which I believe is what you're referring to 
here. I have two minor suggestions:

 1. How about renaming "template.asm" as "app.asm" and making the
    corresponding changes to the makefile? I think this would make a
    workflow of copying the template directory to one named for a new
    application without updating names within the template directory
    very natural. I would feel weird leaving around a file called
    "template.asm" because that doesn't communicate well the purpose of
    the file in the ultimate project. But "app.asm" seems like it could
    usually fit. Having a consistent name like this could also simplify
    documentation.
 2. This is really just a template for an avr8 project, right? Perhaps
    the directory containing this sub-tree should be named
    "avr8-template" instead of "template"? It seems to me that really
    all the directories under "/appl" are currently templates for
    different targets? Is that right?

Note that I haven't tried anything here, these all come from code 
inspection and may be due to misunderstandings on my part.
