The issue tracker on https://github.com/HackerNews/API appears to be disabled, though the summary says "Documentation, Samples, and Issue Tracking for the Official HN API."

Please consider opening up the issue tracker. Other people might benefit from seeing these issues, such as the issue about the comment count that I just raised as a comment here.
