By 2015, several institutes and groups were using Binstar/Anaconda.org to distribute software packages they used daily: the [Omnia Molecular Dynamics](https://github.com/omnia-md) project started as early as March 2014 [^binstar-omnia], UK Met Office supported [SciTools project](https://scitools.org.uk/) joined in June 2014 [^binstar-scitools], the [US Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS)](http://www.ioos.noaa.gov/) started using it in July 2014 [^binstar-ioos].

In 2014, Filipe Fernandes ([@ocefpaf](https://github.com/ocefpaf)) and Phil Elson ([@pelson](https://github.com/pelson)) are maintaining the Binstar channels for IOOS and SciTools, respectively. Phil had implemented CI pipelines and [special tooling](https://github.com/conda-tools/conda-build-all) to build conda packages for SciTools efficiently, and Filipe borrowed it for IOOS. There was also a healthy exchange of recipes between the two groups. It was a successful collaborative effort, but it was inefficient since they were working in separate repos, duplicated recipes, etc.

Phil had implemented CI pipelines and [special tooling](https://github.com/conda-tools/conda-build-all) to build conda packages for SciTools efficiently, and Filipe borrowed it for IOOS. There was also a healthy exchange of recipes between the two groups, very often with the assistance of folks in other communities. For example, Christophe Gohlke and David Cournapeau were instrumental to get Windows builds of the whole SciPy stack working on AppVeyor.

Given the success of the `ContinuumIO/conda-recipes` repository, it was obvious there was a demand for high quality conda recipes and more efficient collaboration under a single umbrella. On April 11th, 2015, `conda-forge` is registered as a Github organization [^github-api-conda-forge] and an Anaconda.org channel [^binstar-conda-forge].
