Good point; we should phrase the question differently.

Ok, the link has now been changed to point to
https://subversion.apache.org/mailing-lists.html#users-ml

The text is now: "Please ensure you have discussed on the
<link>mailing list</link> first BEFORE creating this ticket."

I think we can close this issue / thread now :-). Of course, feel free
to reopen if you feel like it.

Yes, good idea. I'll wait a little bit more to see if there is more
feedback, before passing this along to infra.

Looks good to me. Slight improvement might be to change the link to
point to https://subversion.apache.org/mailing-lists.html#users-ml
instead of the user-lists mail address, since that link actually
describes what the mailing list is (for newbies not too familiar with
mailing lists) and how to subscribe to it.

Things are moving along ...

I got a suggestion from Ivan and added that to the infra ticket [1].
Gavin has now added a note to the Create Issue screen for us.
This appears in red letters (with a mailto link on "Subversion Users")
if you select "Subversion" in the Create Issue screen:

"Please ensure you have discussed on the Subversion Users mailing list
first BEFORE creating this ticket."

WDYT? Tweaks to the text?
