Github Milestone Dashing Widget.md

This will show your next GitHub milestone as a Dashing widget. Built on top of the Text widget.

To use:

• Add the following to your gemfile:

•   gem 'rest-client'
  

• Replace the git_token, git_owner, and git_project in git-milestone.rb as appropriate.

Thanks a bunch for this! I used this as the basis for our dashboards but added support for multiple projects and gave it it's own widget, it's over here.
