From what I've just read, and from what I can find in the current spec we 
can't make any assertions about the format of the output from lsb_release, so 
as you said, the output format needs to be added to the spec.

I guess the most important aspect is the short output format as that is 
easiest to use in a program. This would also allow the long format to be 
unrestricted in it's implementation, which may be a good thing.

I've never had any dealings with specifications before, so unless you really 
want me to, I'll leave the wording up to you or someone else.   So when we do 
have a suggested addition to the spec, what do we do from there?

Cheers,
