Dave Duffield, founder and former CEO of PeopleSoft, is keeping a low profile since selling out to Oracle in a hostile takeover. However, he has put some information and hints on his web site Dave's Next Move which describes how he and several long-time PeopleSoft confederates are taking another run at the enterprise software market. In his vision statement, Duffield says they are taking a new approach to developing enterprise applications that includes open source, object-orientation, XML and web services. Right on, Dave!
Not that Dave needs outside funding, but this would be fully buzzword compliant for any VCs looking to invest in the next big thing.
