Is OOXML actually open?

I dont know if reading this correct, but from what i have read (Deffinately no expert, so please dont flame me to much) OOXML has certain parts of it that are hidden\ protected so that other office type applications can not read it correctly? so theirfore it is not a true open standard? Please do let me know if I am wrong or misunderstand somthing.
