[Zope-CMF] How to get the main parent from a discussion item?

[Ausum]

This is a workaround (any help is still appreciated):

    def the_parent( self, REQUEST=None ):
        current = self
        parent = self
        while parent.meta_type==self.meta_type:
            parent = current.inReplyTo()
            current = parent
        return current

To call its metadata:

<dtml-with the_parent>
   <dtml-var title>
  <dtml-var absolute_url>
  ......
</dtml-with>
