-# Release Strategy
-
-This document explains how AzerothCore RealmMaster releases work and what they contain.
-
-## Release Philosophy
-
-Since **Docker images are stored on Docker Hub**, GitHub releases serve as **deployment packages** rather than source distributions. Each release contains everything users need to deploy pre-built images without building from source.
-
-## What's in a Release?
-
-### Release Assets (ZIP Archive)
-
-Each release includes a downloadable `.zip` file containing:
-
-```
-azerothcore-realmmaster-v1.0.0-realmmaster.zip
-├── .env.prebuilt              # Pre-configured for Docker Hub images
-├── docker-compose.yml         # Service definitions
-├── deploy.sh                  # Deployment script
-├── status.sh                  # Status monitoring
-├── cleanup.sh                 # Cleanup utilities
-├── scripts/                   # Required Python/Bash scripts
-├── config/                    # Module manifest and presets
-├── docs/                      # Complete documentation
-├── QUICKSTART.md             # Release-specific quick start
-└── README.md                 # Project overview
-```
-
-### Release Notes
-
-Each release includes:
-- Module profile and count
-- Docker Hub image tags (date-specific and latest)
-- Quick start instructions
-- Complete module list
-- Build information (commit, date, source variant)
-- Links to documentation
-- Known issues
-
-## Release Types
-
-### 1. Profile-Based Releases
-
-Each module profile gets its own release variant:
-
-- **v1.0.0-realmmaster** - RealmMaster profile (32 modules, recommended)
-- **v1.0.0-suggested-modules** - Alternative suggested module set
-- **v1.0.0-all-modules** - All supported modules
-- **v1.0.0-playerbots-only** - Just playerbots
-
-Users choose the release that matches their desired module set.
-
-### 2. Version Numbering
-
-We use semantic versioning:
-- **Major** (v1.0.0 → v2.0.0): Breaking changes, major feature additions
-- **Minor** (v1.0.0 → v1.1.0): New modules, feature enhancements
-- **Patch** (v1.0.0 → v1.0.1): Bug fixes, documentation updates

-Releases reference specific Docker Hub tags:
-
-### Date-Tagged Images (Recommended for Production)
-```
-uprightbass360/azerothcore-realmmaster:authserver-realmmaster-20260109
-uprightbass360/azerothcore-realmmaster:worldserver-realmmaster-20260109
-```
-- **Immutable**: Never change
-- **Stable**: Guaranteed to match the release
-- **Recommended**: For production deployments
-
-### Latest Tags (Auto-Updated)
-```
-uprightbass360/azerothcore-realmmaster:authserver-realmmaster-latest
-uprightbass360/azerothcore-realmmaster:worldserver-realmmaster-latest
-```
-- **Mutable**: Updated nightly by CI/CD
-- **Convenient**: Always get the newest build
-- **Use case**: Development, testing, staying current
-
-## Creating a Release
-
-### Automated (Recommended)
-
-Use the GitHub Actions workflow:
-
-1. Go to **Actions** → **Create Release**
-2. Click **Run workflow**
-3. Fill in:
-   - **Version**: `v1.0.0`
-   - **Profile**: `RealmMaster` (or other profile)
-   - **Pre-release**: Check if beta/RC
-4. Click **Run workflow**
-
-The workflow automatically:
-- Creates deployment package with all files
-- Generates release notes with module list
-- Uploads ZIP archive as release asset
-- Creates GitHub release with proper tags
-
-### Manual
-
-If you need to create a release manually:
-
-```bash
-# 1. Tag the release
-git tag -a v1.0.0 -m "Release v1.0.0 - RealmMaster Profile"
-git push origin v1.0.0
-
-# 2. Create deployment package
-./scripts/create-release-package.sh v1.0.0 RealmMaster
-
-# 3. Create GitHub release
-# Go to GitHub → Releases → Draft a new release
-# - Tag: v1.0.0
-# - Title: RealmMaster v1.0.0 - RealmMaster Profile
-# - Upload: azerothcore-realmmaster-v1.0.0-realmmaster.zip
-# - Add release notes
-```
-

-## FAQ
-
-### Why are images on Docker Hub and not in releases?
-
-Docker images can be 1-2GB each. GitHub has a 2GB file limit and releases should be lightweight. Docker Hub is designed for hosting images, GitHub releases are for deployment packages.
-
-### Can I use latest tags in production?
-
-We recommend **date-tagged images** for production (e.g., `authserver-realmmaster-20260109`). Latest tags are updated nightly and may have untested changes.
-
-### How do I know which image version a release uses?
-
-Check the release notes - they include the specific Docker Hub tags (date-stamped) that were tested with that release.
-
-### What if I want to build from source instead?
-
-Clone the repository and use `./setup.sh` + `./build.sh` instead of using pre-built releases. See [GETTING_STARTED.md](GETTING_STARTED.md) for instructions.
-
-### Are releases required?
-
-No! You can:
-1. **Use releases**: Download ZIP, deploy pre-built images (easiest)
-2. **Use nightly images**: Pull latest tags directly from Docker Hub
-3. **Build from source**: Clone repo, build locally (most flexible)
-
-Releases are just convenient snapshots for users who want stability.
