This project is intended to summarize issue comments.

The intended breakdown is as follows:

• Total % of all comments per user
• Total % "attendance" in an issue (commenting in an issue) per user
• Total % attendance in issues with certain tags (user questions) and/or asked by non-maintainers

concerns: max age 60, how do we bypass that?

rel="last" tells us how many pages total.

labels="question"

plan

Get all issues that were questions regardless of state

curl --anyauth --user username:password https://api.github.com/repos/tripal/tripal/issues?labels=question\&state=all\&per_page=100 > all_questions.json

need to deal with pagination!! see https://developer.github.com/v3/guides/traversing-with-pagination/

We can look at the labels key of each issue for issues tagged with the name "question" (see example label below)

"labels": [
      {
        "id": 686191570,
        "node_id": "MDU6TGFiZWw2ODYxOTE1NzA=",
        "url": "https://api.github.com/repos/tripal/tripal/labels/documentation",
        "name": "documentation",
        "color": "bfdadc",
        "default": false
      }
    ],
