Because the GitHub releases section is no longer being updated, I see no point in keeping

it around providing outdated information.

From what I'm seeing in the articles linked below it should be fairly simple to clear it

out; you can even delete all releases at once if you go with the GitHub CLI method.

Using GitHub CLI:

ub-repository

Using GitHub website:

https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/releasing-projects-on-github/managing-releases-in-

a-repository#deleting-a-release

I would rather opt for adding a big fat warning that the releases there are outdated,

point to the new place, and leave them there as archives for historical reasons.

Otherwise, if one wants to delete the github account entirely (which I totally can

understand that one does not want to use GitHub and have an account with Microsoft),

then of course deleting the releases in the same course would be very natural.

Regards!
