We dont have a name yet, but we do have a time horizon: a hypothetical date," said Mr. Duffield. Today feels very much like the early days of PeopleSoft and we feel the world is ready for something new. Its time to deliver on promises that werent fulfilled in previous systems. As it relates to our vision, what we are sharing right now is intentionally minimalistic, but we have a Web site, www.DavesNextMove.com, and are looking forward to sharing more details when the time is right. Its a very bold approach - it may not work, but it is exciting to try."
Mr. Duffield founded PeopleSoft, Inc. in 1987 and went on to serve as the companys CEO and board chairman where he offered significant technical and functional contributions to the development of business software. He was the driving force behind the companys vision, product, market direction, and commitment to customer service.
