Bug Description

GitHub now offers a very nicely designed issue tracking system:
https://github.com/blog/831-issues-2-0-the-next-generation

Given that LP already support hosted code on GitHub, it would only make sense that it also would support bug tracking there...

This looks like low-hanging fruit that would be very helpful for integration, now that many major projects are on Github and are using its bugtracker.

+1! This feature would be very useful for projects hosted on github and having a project page on LP.

+1 since I move my stuff away from launchpad, having issues still enabled would be very nice.

+1, as I would like to link the Git clone branch I've here on LP to the original upstream project and to its issue tracker.
(I created a Git clone here for daily builds)

I'd also like to add that much of LXDE's development has moved to GitHub, so would love to be able to add issues. This is especially true with LXQt coming into the repos. We're hoping to push it out in Y-cycle, so would love it if this came sooner than later. ;)
