-A maintainer is an individual who is responsible for maintaining and updating one or more feedstock repositories and packages as well as their future versions. They have push access to the feedstock repositories of only the packages they maintain and can merge `PR <https://conda-forge.org/docs/misc/00_intro.html#glossary>`__ into it. See `Maintainers Role. <https://conda-forge.org/docs/maintainer/adding_pkgs.html#maintainer-role>`__
+To submit a package to the ``conda-forge`` channel, add its ``recipe`` and licence to the ``staged-recipes`` repository and create a pull request. Once the pull request is merged, the package becomes available
+on the ``conda-forge`` channel. Note that contributing a package makes you the ``maintainer`` of that package.
 
-The list of maintainers of a feedstock package is recorded in the recipe of that package itself. Once you create a package, as a code owner, you automatically become a maintainer of it. In case you wish to be a maintainer of a certain package, you should ask for permission from its current maintainers and
-get your `gitub-id` added to the `recipe-maintainers` section in the recipe’s `meta.yaml`. 
-`Please refer to Updating the maintainer list <https://conda-forge.org/docs/maintainer/updating_pkgs.html#updating-the-maintainer-list>`__ for detailed instructions.
