Well, this is a pretty heady claim. "The IMS Global Learning Consortium (IMS GLC) announces that the goal of being able to develop an application or digital content one way and then seamlessly integrating it with any course management system or educational portal has been achieved." The claim is a bit more limited than it sounds - basically, it involves compatibility with two of IMS's standards, Common Cartridge and Learning Tools Interoperability. And in this, the claim is certainly believable - and I think a big part of that is that the standards were developed hand-in-hand with implementations of the standards.
