+### Changed
+
+| Component                        | Change                                                                       |
+|----------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| Version Resolution               | Now uses only remote apache.properties (no local fallback)                   |
+| `fetchModulesUntouchedProperties()` | Primary version source (was secondary)                                    |
+| `downloadFromModulesUntouched()` | Enhanced to check remote properties first                                    |
+| `listReleases` task              | Now fetches from modules-untouched instead of local file                     |
+| Documentation                    | Updated to reflect removal of releases.properties                            |

+|----------|-------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------|
+| 1        | Remote `apache.properties`                | Fetch from modules-untouched (PRIMARY)       |
+| 2        | Direct repository download                | Download from `apache{version}/` directory   |
+
+**Note:** Local `releases.properties` is no longer used.

+## Functional Changes
+
+### Build Path Resolution
+**Before:**
+```groovy
+def buildPath = file("${rootDir}/../bearsampp-build")
+def buildBinsPath = file("${buildPath}/bins/${bundleName}/${bundleRelease}")
+```
+
+**After:**
+```groovy
+// Priority: build.properties > env var > default
+buildBasePath = buildPathFromProps ?: (buildPathFromEnv ?: defaultBuildPath)
+def buildPath = file(buildBasePath)
+def buildBinsPath = file("${buildPath}/${bundleType}/${bundleName}/${bundleRelease}")
+```
+
+### Version Detection
+**Before:**
+```groovy
+def getAllAvailableVersions() {
+    // Returns array of maps with version, path, location
+    versions.add([
+        version: file.name.replace(bundleName, ''),
+        path: file,
+        location: 'bin/'
+    ])
+}
+```
+
+**After:**
+```groovy
+def getAvailableVersions() {
+    // Returns simple array of version strings
+    versions.addAll(binVersions)
+    versions.addAll(archivedVersions)
+    return versions.unique().sort()
+}
+```
+
+### 7-Zip Detection
+**Before:**
+```groovy
+def findSevenZip() {
+    // Basic search in common paths
+    def locations = [
+        'C:\\Program Files\\7-Zip\\7z.exe',
+        'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\7-Zip\\7z.exe',
+        // ...
+    ]
+}
+```
+
+**After:**
+```groovy
+def find7ZipExecutable() {
+    // Check 7Z_HOME environment variable first
+    def sevenZipHome = System.getenv('7Z_HOME')
+    if (sevenZipHome) {
+        def exe = file("${sevenZipHome}/7z.exe")
+        if (exe.exists()) return exe.absolutePath
+    }
+    // Then check common paths including D: drive
+    // ...
+}
+```
+
+## Task Updates
+
+| Task            | Updates                                                                      |
+|-----------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| `info`          | Added "Build Path" display showing resolved build base path                  |
+| `listVersions`  | Simplified output, shows location tags, cleaner display                      |
+| `verify`        | Added 7-Zip verification, uses `find7ZipExecutable()`                        |
+| `release`       | Interactive mode with location tags, new build path structure                |
+| `releaseAll`    | Supports archived directory, simplified version detection                    |
