Vladimir,

As a fuel-separatist I give this initiative a big +1 because of the following 
advantages I can see:

 - Git is designed for keeping smaller single-compoent repos, keeping 
everything to one repo is a discouraged pattern
 - Having a separate -core group that will only contain active core reviewers 
for fuel-agent project so getting core-reviews will be easier.
 - It makes possible to re-use some of the existing jobs in OpenStack CI
 - Making independent releases becomes possible

AFAIK fuel-agent is positioned as an independent provisioning tool which will 
not be exclusively used by Fuel. There is a work in progress to integrate it 
with Ironic. Integrating it to any other provisioning system should also be 
possible then. From that perspective putting it into its own repo also brings 
the following advantages:

 - Connecting 3rd party CI will be possible
 - Getting involved for the new folks will be much easier
