Everything is in GitHub, so you can simply browse the issues and milestones there as you would any other repository.

However, the best way to see what's going on is to take a look at our repository with the ZenHub Chrome/Firefox plugin installed (https://zenhub.io). Once installed, you'll be able to see the issues on the ZenHub "board" in their respective workflow columns (Backlog, In Progress, etc), and in priority order.

For example, this link will display on the ZenHub board the equivalent of the ghi query seen above:

https://github.com/gradle/gradle-script-kotlin#boards?repos=57252451&labels=a%3Afeature&milestone=1.0.0-M2-2016-06-22

Assuming you have the ZenHub plugin installed, you'll see something like the screenshot below.
