As Italo mentioned LO is backwards compatible with all ODF specifications.
But since LO is pushing the ODF file format, the current LO implementation
is more advanced than the current approved OASIS standard (e.g. LO supports
font embedding)

So it's not a case that LO is not implementing the existing ODF standards
but that it is already improving on them (in an open manner, unlike MS XML).
So OASIS has to catch up :)

Hope this makes it clear ;)
