Hello,

Much as many of us are fond of GitHub, one of the site's major
shortcomings is the Issues page, especially if you have as many issues
as IPython does.  However, one of the great features of GitHub is its
json api, which means that anyone can write a better UI to the issue
tracker, and various people have had a run at this.  One I have found
useful is actually a demo of Cappucino, an OSX-centric webapp
framework.  Far from perfect, but it does handle the long list much
better.

You can see IPython's Issues by visiting:
http://githubissues.heroku.com/#ipython/ipython

And, if you are on OSX, you can run it as a standalone app, downloaded
from here:
