Since Lion Air has the honour of being on the list of airlines banned from operation in European airspace due to safety concerns, I doubt oneworld will accept them for entry any time soon.

[Garuda Indonesia was on this list for a while, but managed to get itself removed as a condition of entry to SkyTeam.]

The edit is not cited and as far as I can see it is without foundation in fact.
