Good point. I believe that SourceFabric's target audience is mostly in poorer countries and developing nations, where news organisations neither have the resources to build their own CMS, nor a more comprehensive workflow management system like this. They've been doing this for a good number of years, and I think are only daring this "big leap" after observing the needs of such organisations for quite a while.

For what it's worth, Superdesk is in newsrooms in Norway, the UK and Australia. Our plan, though, is to get the same tools into developing countries. We believe newsrooms are the same no matter where you go, Basel to Bamako.

I worked with media companies in latinamerica, an almost no one was willing to move to another CMS, nor add new functionality to the existing ones.
I hope this is gonna start changing soon, because the main issue is that people in charge of media is old for the most part, so they kind of hate change and prefer to keep things as they are.
