Oracle CFO Henley Appointed Chairman

Oracle CFO Henley Appointed Chairman "Oracle Corp.'s chief financial officer, Jeff Henley, has replaced CEO Larry Ellison as chairman of the software maker.
The Redwood Shores, Calif. company's board of directors on Monday split the responsibilities of chief executive officer and chairman of the board, both of which had been handled by Ellison. Ellison remains as the CEO."

Surprising and probably a very sensible move -- not unlike Bill Gates giving up CEO and focusing on software strategy (although Gates is still MS Chairman)
