I've seen the JEM_DESCRIPTION and PKG_JEM_INSTALLATION_DESCRIPTION.
It's the verbally translated description of EVENTLIST.
But we have the problem, that now the name JEM says nothing, meanwhile EventList said something.
So, it doesn't make any sense to write:
"JEM is just that what the name would lead you to expect."

Perhaps here we should write like in the logo: "JEM - an EventManager for Joomla is just that what the name would lead you to expect...
Or we let this and describe only with the rest.

Also, i looked into the help files and I think I understand how it works. So I will start working on those as well this week, as they need to be completely re-written too.

OK, I would like to propose the following text:

PKG_JEM="JEM - Package"

PKG_JEM_INSTALLATION_DESCRIPTION="JEM is an Event Management Component for Joomla.<br/><br/>

It's not a calendar but an easy way to manage and present your events for your group, company or community.<br/>
JEM offers a lot of features and possibilities which make your work easier, like the Venue database, Event recurrence, Auto geotagging and much more.<br/>
But also for your site visitors JEM has some additional features to offer, like a simple registration system, map service links, or the submission/edit of events and venues from the frontend...<br/><br/>

Please note this is a development release and <b>should not be used on live websites!</b><br/><br/>


JEM is based on Eventlist by Christoph Lukes (http://www.schlu.net)<br/><br/>

This package consists of the JEM component combined with essential modules and plugins. <br/><br/><br/>


- search plugin<br/>
- finder plugin (smart search)<br/>
- mailer plugin<br/>- comments plugin<br/>
- latest Events Basic module<br/>
- latest Events Wide module<br/><br/>

If you want to use any of these modules and plugins, please do not forget to publish them in the moule manager or the plugin manager in your site´s backend.<br/><br/><br/>

I tried to change the text in the package description in en-GB.pkg_jem.sys.ini but I keep getting errors after installing. The site completely disappears. Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong?

It must have something to do with the content of the string. I used line breaks in the example above, but not in the actual ini file.
