Personally, I like the fact that newcomers can get all popcon related
stuff by checking out one repository.  What is the advantages of
splitting it in two?

I see a similar problem with other projects.  d-i for example, used to
be one repo with everything.  Easy to check out and grep for the
strings I was looking for.  Now I need to track down every single
relevant git repo and check it out before I can do the same.  And the
proposal for Debian Edu is similar.  I fail to see the advantage, and
only see the problem.  What am I missing?
