I chose a Firefox-recommended extension to listen to two texts: 

A)  the three-sentence paragraph, with full stops, at <https://www.freebsd.org/releases/14.3R/errata/#late-287482> (near the foot of the page, where  bug 287482 is mentioned). 

B) the five numbered list items, each of which comprises multiple sentences with no full stop, at <https://www.freebsd.org/releases/15.0R/errata/#open-issues>. 

The sentences without stops sound wrong, to me, at least with the recommended extension: <https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/read-aloud/>. 

Can someone check with a screen reader? 

Thanks.
