a milestone can be used to distinguish issues and PRs that are
targeting a release.
for example, we already released 4.8, but all 4.8.x issues and PRs
should have the same 4.8 milestone.

i've added the 4.8 milestone at github and assigned one issue for it for now:
https://github.com/Subsurface-divelog/subsurface/issues/1461

here are a couple of other bugs that could be fixed in 4.8.1 as well:
https://github.com/Subsurface-divelog/subsurface/issues/1445
https://github.com/Subsurface-divelog/subsurface/issues/1446

if you think there are more, we can add them.

I can't see a milestone on GitHub - am I looking at this wrong?

yes, also on this page (issue):
https://github.com/Subsurface-divelog/subsurface/issues/1461

the issue has a milestone set, on the right under labels.

Normal “deadly” people cannot set milestones, I just created #1468 and wanted to add the 4.8 milestone.

I understand that creating new labels and milestones should be restricted, but is it really a good idea that only “goods” can assign them ?

I suppose from my choice of words, my opinion is clear :-)

yep only collaborators can do that for now. eventually we can extend
that with bot functionality.
if you have a proposed item just mention Dirk, as i think ultimately
he should decide what applies for the next release.

milestones are like the "release blocker" label, except they are less strict.
if something is a "release blocker" it has to be fixed 100% for a
release, while a certain PR can be moved outside of the milestone.
at least that's how i see it - just a proposal.
