I would be cautious with a statement like this. The web app will almost
certainly work fine on OpenJDK, but there are parts - like the MediaFilter
- which may either not work or have limited functionality on OpenJDK.

(Nothing is coded to specifically use Oracle/Sun APIs, but OpenJDK does not
have the full imaging library that is in the Oracle release. I noticed this
particularly working with VIVO, where the parts related to profile photos
simply don't work when using OpenJDK.)
