Comment (by scott.gonzalez):

 GPL (and therefore LGPL) allows distribution of only object code so long
 as you make the source code available. One such method is by providing
 "access to copy the Corresponding Source from a network server at no
 charge." Providing a link to the source code, either in the minified file
 or in the tinymce directory should be enough, even if the link points
 upstream.
