add columns: Github stats

• # of stars
• # of open issues
• # of open issues / # of total issues (e.g. 5/12)
• # of open PRs / # of total issues

The remaining items would cause a lot of GH API calls (200+ per page load). Probably the right thing is to cache this info in the IPFS network... (we've discussed this kind of thing before)...

Feature request: Add a column for latest commit. This is to see when the repo was updated the last time, to provide more information how "active" each repo is.

@haadcode Is that the date, or the commit hash?

[haadcode]

Date with a link to the commit (log?) On GH

SGTM

I don't think that having the number of total issues is actually a relevant thing to get, nor the number of total PRs. All this does is show the age of the repository, not the amount of work to do. If the percentage of open issues was compared against the amount of closed issues, per period (week, month, year), we'd have a much better look at whether or not current maintenance efforts are lagging - but, as a whole, I just don't think this number is useful to anyone, because it encourages stress (I've got to close these issues).

So, I think that this can be closed. Going to open a new issue for the commit suggestion.

I get your points @RichardLitt. Maybe discuss

of open issues / # of total issues (e.g. 5/12)

of open PRs / # of total issues

with @jbenet who suggested them originally.

@jbenet Thoughts?
