What does `lsb` stands for in `lsb_release`?

I can get Ubuntu version by lsb_release -a. To remember this command I want to know what stands for the lsb?

I found "Linux Standard Base" here. Is this right?

Yes it is true, See Wikipedia

LSB=Linux Standard Base 

As most with most commands, the manual usually helps:

$ man lsb_release

...

DESCRIPTION

The lsb_release command provides certain LSB (Linux Standard Base) and distribution-specific information.

Which leads to:

$ man lsb
