Mike,

You are absolutely right about our current priorities for 6.1 and this
thread is not about immediate action.

But just to be fair, moving Fuel Client to a separate repo was a priori
much more complicated procedure because it is tested together with nailgun.
For Fuel Agent we just need to create a separate repo (30 minutes) and make
changes for fuel-main (30 minutes). There is nothing to worry about because
it is completely independent. And taking into account our recent activities
about integrating it with Ironic I would say there is no reason to postpone
this until 7.0

Alexander,

As for fuel_agent_ci, it is not used currently on the regular basis, so I
think we need it to be moved to the same separate repo and then one day in
the future maybe we will use it for functional testing.
