The only conclusion possible is that he was forced out for failure to implement the warehouse strategy well. Cracks are forming. Maybe, but I know from working at Oracle in the early days that the stress of hypergrowth causes more turnover and constant backbiting between executives than in a stable high growth environment... I suspect thats what happened to that Junglee guy, he didn't deliver or didn't get along or whatever... its hard to read these departures. I'm not trying to say it was good by any means but without an inside perspective who knows. Tom Siebel was either fired or quit Oracle in 1989 (of course the PR said he left to "persue other interests") just before Oracle sales exploded, fwiw.
