Descripción

I was going through this page in the conda-forge documentation.

https://conda-forge.org/docs/user/introduction.html

The opening goes like this:

>*What is conda-forge?*
>conda-forge is a community effort that provides conda packages for a wide range of software.

Now, although conda-forge _is_ a community effort, that alone cannot be its definition. It's just a quality.

"What is conda-forge?" should not be followed by "it's a community effort".
But instead a proper, concise, consistent definition that we use across all our pages of documentation, or infact, on all our pages across the web.

Again, the 'about' page has a different description/definition which, although better than 'conda-forge is a community effort', is too wordy and confusing.

https://conda-forge.org/#about

What's the one line answer we give when someone asks us, "What's conda-forge, btw?"

"oh, conda-forge is a tool that lets you install all packages from a single channel" or whatever.

I think, it is time we mutually decide upon a definition that's descriptive and at the same time concise and use this definition across our web presence.

@viniciusdc , I'd like to know your views on this.
