A lot of people were excited about the Issues release yesterday, but many asked for an API for it. Because we love you all and you’re so good to us, we released one for you.
However, in addition to that, we’re opening up the first release of our whole version 2 API, including Repository, User, Commit, Object and Network APIs, with more (including Gist) on the way soon. We’re still working on it, but if you’re brave of heart, please try it out and let us know if you find any issues.
What’s even better though is we actually created some documentation for it. If you go to develop.github.com, you’ll see a new set of pages that document all the current functionality of our new API.
If you have requests or find problems with anything, please enter an issue at the develop website projects issue tracker. Also, if you write anything that uses this new API, let us know so we can add your project to our documentation pages.
Right on cool!

You guys have been busy.

You wrote it late night?
Hello,
I’ve written a script that allows you to migrate your tickets from Lighthouse to Github using the API : http://suitmymind.com/2009/04/18/move-your-tickets-from-lighthouse-to-github/
The script is surely not perfect, but I hope I can improve it with your feedback.
Best, Thomas Balthazar.
I’ve written a script that allows you to easily access the GitHub Issues API from any git working directory from which the origin is hosted on GitHub. You can list issues, add or edit issues, open and close issues, add and remove labels, all from the command-line. You can find it here: http://github.com/jsmits/github-cli/ Regards, Sander Smits
Great work you guys :) Should make it real easy to automate back-up of issues, wiki and what have we.
My gem is out there too: http://github.com/fcoury/octopi
Great work!
Hey,
The Github API has been updated, it now allows to add comments to issues.
I've updated my script. It also specifies the number of attachment of
the original LH ticket.
Read here for the list of changes :

Feel free to comment/patch/report issues, ...
Cheers,

This is getting better and better. Still, I want 3 things before making the switch from Lighthouse:
Keep up the fantastic work!
