I think we need something shorter that developers can remember, i.e.
that we can type ourselves without resorting to a canned response,
1which can be off-putting, especially if some of it doesn't apply.

So I've gone ahead and created a wiki page, which can be longer and more
friendly, and require a shorter response on the actual ticket, something
like this:

  Closing as WONTFIX because ...

  If you want to persuade us otherwise, please bring it up on the
  DevelopersMailingList

The page:

https://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/DevelopersMailingList

That's my draft, feel free to edit. We don't want it too long, as that
is intimidating by itself, but some of the points you make might would
be good additions

What do people think?
