+# Old Manual Release Script - Archive
+
+## What Was Moved (2025-11-09)
+
+`release_old_manual.py` - Legacy manual release management script
+
+### Original Purpose:
+Manual release automation tool that handled:
+- Version management and validation
+- Changelog generation
+- Git tagging and repository management
+- Package building and distribution
+- Release artifact creation
+
+### Why Archived:
+- **Replaced by modern capability system**: `capabilities/release-management/`
+- **File name indicates obsolescence**: Named "old_manual"
+- **Created 2025-10-03**: Development artifact, now superseded
+- **Modern alternatives available**: `make release-status`, `make release-publish-gitea`
+
+### Modern Replacement:
+The release management functionality is now handled by:
+- `capabilities/release-management/` - Modern capability-based system
+- Integrated with main Makefile via capability discovery
+- Improved automation and maintainability
+
+### Commands Available:
+```bash
+make release-status                    # Show release status
+make release-publish-gitea VERSION=x.y.z  # Complete release workflow
+make capabilities-help                 # See all release commands
+```
