Is CompactPCI a real standard that is accepted worldwide?
Yes, it is. The PICMG http://www.picmg.org defines the CompactPCI standards. The PICMG consists of members. These include suppliers and users from all over the world. It is active since around 10 years now, and CompactPCI is now at a stable release 3.0. In addition it is supported by 100s of suppliers with 1000s of products, used in numerous applications and markets. A European organization was founded besides the American PICMG PICMG Europe (http://www.picmgeu.org) due to the large number of hardware developers. PICMG US and Europe work closely and equally together. In other economic areas further PICMGs exist, for example in Japan (http://www.picmg-japan.com).
