This is meant to be an export/import type of thing. So you won't be able to 
"open" something in ArcMap and start manipulating it live using the 
ArcMap/ArcCatalog tools. The other approach I am proposing would be OGR as a 
seamless datasource that integrates with ArcGIS at the data access layer level. 
It would be transparent to the other tools.

documentation has been augmented with a view to interoperability being achieved 
at the XML level.  So, maybe no, they have not published the binary structure 
but they may have published enough to enable XML exchange.  I've not read all 
the material - and I would need to think about much of it before I understood 
it.  Whether there is enough there I cannot say ...  I was looking at
