Issue management

We use GitHub to track all of our bugs and feature requests. Each issue we track has a variety of metadata:

• Epic. An epic represents a feature area. Epics are fairly broad in scope and are basically product-level things. Each issue is ultimately part of an epic.

• Milestone. Each issue is assigned a milestone. This is 0.1, 0.2, ..., or 'Nebulous Future'. The milestone indicates when we think the issue should get addressed.

• Priority/Pipeline. Each issue has a priority which is represented by the Pipeline field within GitHub. Priority can be one of P0, P1, P2, or >P2. The priority indicates how important it is to address the issue within the milestone. P0 says that the milestone cannot be considered achieved if the issue isn't resolved.
