In which I read:

   "IBM is committed to opening office desktop productivity applications just 
as we helped
   open enterprise computing with Linux," said Steve Mills, senior vice 
president and
   group executive, IBM Software Group. "The lifeblood of any organization is 
contained in
   thousands of documents. With the Open Document Format, businesses can unlock 
their
   information, making it universally accessible on any platform and on the Web 
in highly
   flexible ways."

Does this mean it's compatible with OpenOffice?  I hope it doesn't then
succumb to incompatible feature creep.
