 Priority higgest and severity blocker because it is a license problem

 Hi,

 Tinymce is distribued under the LGPL and thus you should redistribute
 source as prefered form of modification.

 You only redistribute the source as concatenation of source file
 http://code.svn.wordpress.org/wordpress-sources/tinymce/

 First line read:
 FILE IS GENERATED BY COMBINING THE SOURCES IN THE "classes" DIRECTORY SO
 DON'T MODIFY THIS FILE DIRECTLY

 It is not the prefered form of modification so it is a license violation.

 Please check other LGPL/GPL modules for this kind of problems
