archive issue trackers

[njr2128]

using Github's API, archive all issues

simple recursive crawl of html:
wget -r -np -k https://github.com/cu-mkp/m-k-manuscript-data/issues/

Another tool for a similar strategy (just local harvest of site): http://www.httrack.com/

from @tcatapano - another idea:
use json output from the github rest api to serve as input to Jekyll to generate a static site

• for example, each issue json record is converted to md document with associated metadata in the yaml header
• should each comment in an issue be part of the md issue page or be its own page and linked to? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Here's a gist of the Python code needed to get the issues.
Currently I'm just grabbing all the information for the issues and comments.
The content of each issue and comment is given in Markdown, so it would definitely work to generate a static site with Jekyll.
