# MANUS Release Policy
MANUS is published as a family of source-specific repositories rather than one monolithic payload repository because the source datasets use different license terms.
## Current Public Layout
- `MANUS`: landing/index repository; no data payload.
- `MANUS-HaGRID`: HaGRID/HaGRIDv2-derived payload repository.
- `MANUS-DexYCB`: DexYCB-derived payload repository.
## Policy
1. Do not merge source datasets with incompatible licenses into one payload repository.
2. Keep source-specific data files, manifests, license notices, and citations in their own repositories.
3. Use this landing repository to document shared schema conventions, loading examples, and the license matrix.
4. Public manifests should avoid local absolute build paths.
5. Each payload repository must include its own checksum file and source license metadata.
