For the Security Manager, the warning was worded a little differently:

"WARNING: The Security Manager is deprecated and will be removed in a future release"

I think that wording is more clear. The current wording could be confusing because JDK 24 is when jstatd is deprecated for removal, and not a future release. The wording above is more definitive for those that may not understand what "deprecated for removal" means. Thus, I suggest:

"WARNING: jstatd is deprecated and will be removed in a future release"
