I've personally worked at 3 large organizations that have tried to formulate and develop an all-encompassing content management system. One of those organizations is a broadcaster that was also trying to build a digital content management system.

Every single one of those projects has been a total boondoggle. Always over budget. Always changing scope. Always missing every single milestone and deadline.

Now, I know that this is not a statistically significant sample size, but this sort of thing seems to be more common that I initially thought. It's like the worst-case scenario of design-by-committee.
