It would be useful to know if this really is policy that has the backing
of the Community Council. It makes the Community look very bad if it is
seen to be trying to negate any options on interoperability. Of course
this could be a Microsoft ploy to make the OOo community appear as bad
as it is. A statement from the leadership stating unambiguously the
project position on interoperability would be a useful thing because
without it, just about anyone can say anything. 

OOo has nothing to fear from interoperability. Lack of courage in
dealing with that issue will only do harm to the project.
