  Yahoo Changes indicate possible merger?

My column in Marketwatch discusses the machinations going on at Yahoo. A CFO friend of mine wrote me the following note:

Decker is ex Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette, M&A.  She's getting OJT to be CEO.  But given the I bank background, I hear merger tom-toms, and she's had the experience there.  Rosensweig probably couldn't stand the new direction.

So I began to think who this might be? The obvious possibilities are Cnet, AOL and Alibaba. Any other ideas from the readers would be welcome.

I think he meant SBC.  ECA is not a stickler for spelling or correct facts.
