Thanks. I've applied your patch, except for the changes to
  maintain.texi
  standards.texi
  make-stds.texi
which I've forwarded to bug-standards.

We haven't been paying attention to this detail (write @. instead of .
to terminate a sentence that ends with an uppercase letter). Maybe
your patch will remind us to do it better in the future.

I don't know whom to contact to change these.
