v2 API doesn't provide access to the new features of Issues, added in
version 2 of GitHub Issues, like Milestones. I thought adding the
Milestone due date as a deadline would be useful. But, as you suggest,
I should probably try things with APIv2 until the v3 is more stable.

Yes. I'll fix it, as soon as I get some time and am able to move stuff to v2.

Thanks for the suggestions, will look into them. :)
