changed the description

@thomas-dent, @tito-canton, @benoit.mours, @linqing-wen, @manoj.kovalam can you guys please send us a short paragraph for your pipelines similar to the current one that describes gstlal's p-astro operation?

@shaon.ghosh my plan was to use the document that has been already put together to gather the p_astro assumptions: https://dcc.ligo.org/LIGO-T2300134. Though it may need some proper rewording to make it more easily accessible to non-experts.

@patrick-brady @leo-singer Can we do a P&P review of this document and make it public, so that this can be referred to in the Userguide which will let us minimize the text in the Userguide? Having the details from all the pipelines seems too much to me. People who are interested to know the details of the methods used by various pipeline can just navigate to the link like they would do for any publication.

@shaon.ghosh to be more explicit, I do not think it is a good idea to just throw that document out there. It is way too technical. I am working on editing the userguide, please give me some time.

@tito-canton Thanks!

I agree with @tito-canton. I think it is best if a much more concise version of that document is subsumed into the User Guide and becomes the source of truth for both the collaboration and for astronomers on this matter.

@shaon.ghosh @tito-canton Is anyone from gstlal tasked with checking the statement about mean rate values being updated weekly?

@cody.messick could you please ask someone from gstlal (unless you already know the answer) about this?

Is the intention that users need to look at the pipeline in an alert before they can interpret the classification? I skimmed through the current technical document. It does not currently look like something that could be released. I could imagine some digest, but it's hard for me to tell how closely the meaning of the BNS, NSBH and BBH classifications align at this time.

@patrick-brady I think the main purpose is to make sure that in this section the details provided are not just tied to the method used for gstlal. Tito said that he is working towards distilling the main points from the technical document into the Userguide. Hopefully, that will not be so technical. In my opinion, this will definitely take more time and a proper P&P review.
