+    longDescription =''Eliom is a framework for programming Web sites
+    and client/server Web applications. It introduces new concepts to
+    simplify programming common behaviours and uses advanced static
+    typing features of OCaml to check many properties of the Web site
+    at compile time. If you want to write a Web application, Eliom
+    makes possible to write the whole application as a single program
+    (client and server parts). A syntax extension is used to
+    distinguish both parts and the client side is compiled to JS using
+    Ocsigen Js_of_ocaml.'';
