Etihad to oneWorld?

I know it is not Air NZ directly related, but it has implications, nonetheless.
I was surprised to read this quote about EY and a oneWorld invite, especially after accepting Qatar.

This does a number of things:
- is a reposte by BA to the QF/EK deal
- keeps Air Berlin in o/W
- provides everyone with greater access to India via Jet

It also provides Air NZ with one less reason to remain in Star, but to go independent.

Etihad are highly unlikely to be interested in the invitation.

IMHO very unlikely - QR will join oneWorld next year.

There's no chance of Etihad and Qatar ending up in the same alliance.
