It looks like the outbound can be flown up until August 12 and then again starting in December. It also looks like you can get free stuff overs in Malon. If you do a search in the GDS this one comes up smack in the middle of the economy fares, which makes me think somebody fat fingered entering in the fare.

Correct. No tier points so no good if you take up this fare purely to chase OWS/OWE status.
I think Air Italy will eventually join OW. Before JUL though will be massively unlikely.
I also tend to be a little cautious about relying on dates with Qatar especially when it comes to 'launching' things. Have they given a definitive date that will see a QR aircraft on the Milan - JFK route? As good as the fare is i'd be bummed to book it and turn up on the day to see one of Meridiana's 767's at the gate.
