## Data Available

| Data Type | Source | Notes |
|-----------|--------|-------|
| Release binaries | GitHub releases | Preserve before deletion |
| Changelogs | Release notes | Feature history |
| Checksums | Release page | Verify integrity |
| Source tags | Git tags | Build from source |

## Usage

```bash
# Collect all releases for a project
./generate-jobs.sh LetheanNetwork/lethean > jobs.txt

# Just metadata (no binaries)
./generate-jobs.sh LetheanNetwork/lethean --metadata-only > jobs.txt

# Include pre-releases
./generate-jobs.sh LetheanNetwork/lethean --include-prereleases > jobs.txt
```

## Job Format

URL|FILENAME|TYPE|METADATA
https://api.github.com/repos/LetheanNetwork/lethean/releases|releases-lethean-all.json|github-api|project=lethean

```

## Preservation Priority

1. **Critical**: Changelogs, checksums, version numbers
2. **Important**: Release dates, asset lists, download counts
3. **Optional**: Binary downloads (large, reproducible from source)

## Notes

- Abandoned projects often delete releases first
- GitHub API rate limited - use authenticated requests
- Some projects use different release platforms (SourceForge, own CDN)
- Track gpg signature files when available
