Third party application restrictions? #741

This shouldn't be a problem for apps using the "GitHub Apps" system, only the older oauth method I think? That's still a large portion of applications though, probably the majority. A restricted list sounds fine to me, we don't add many and I'm not sure we're actually using any aside from Travis so it shouldn't add much friction. I'd say go for it, it sounds sensible and if it gets painful we can reassess. |

alright, I enabled it just now. Let me know if this causes problems anywhere. |

also @BlueHatbRit I just made you an owner of the org as well (it seemed silly to me that you weren't). So all of us should be able to turn the restrictions off again if need be. |

Thanks for turning that on and thanks for the owner permissions, I never had any idea what permissions I had anyway haha. Just as a heads up to anyone interested, I think the next bigger chunk of work I'm going to try and push through will be to re-write the main daemon tests and get them using a newer and maintained library. The one we're using at the moment is deprecated and has some security alerts against it. If anyone has any suggestions for what might be a good one to move to for statsd specifically, give me a shout. |

I was playing around with some integrations this weekend and noticed that all of them immediately get authorization to the statsd org when I allow them access to my account. This feels a bit icky and I was wondering what y’all think about enabling third party restrictions? This would mean we’ll maintain an allow list of apps and any integration will have to be added there. It’s a bit safer with the added overhead of maintaining that list. What do you think?
