100% my opinion!

plus the one from greg.redl:

"You are correct that ASDM is not the only Java dependent software in our enterprise.  However, most include their own JRE and those that aren't are being replaced with OpenJDK compatible options."

Such an ignorant statement from cisco - I can't believe it! Remember, we need this for a security application!
