As I understand it, other web app packages also depend on the presence of *a*
web server, because in order to make real use of the package you need a
webserver. Perhaps Neal can clarify/adjust this further.

We don't generate the compressed javascript files; I believe the author of
TinyMCE has some open source tool they distribute for doing so.

This is in contrast to Enano's handling of javascript files: it has its own JS
compressor code, and compresses its own javascript library on the fly. For
stability reasons I generally prefer using the pre-compressed versions from the
TinyMCE authors.

Recently work was done to add in wikitext editor features (through a plugin)
that provide a GUI toolbar for formatting, similar to that of MediaWiki, and
thus we may soon be considering the possibility of eliminating TinyMCE entirely
from the Enano core. It breaks everything, the developers themselves never use
it, and it seems to have perpetual licensing problems.
