First you write an ExternalMethod to do it for you (the current
implementation has no direct knobs to do it, as it wasn't a
requirement for PTK/CMF).

Something like:

   def deleteReply( self, reply_path ):
       """
           Delete the reply pointed to by 'reply_path' from our talkback.
       """
       if type( reply_path ) == type( '' ):
           reply_path = string.split( reply_path, '/' )
       reply_id = reply_path[ -1 ]
       del self.talkback._container[ reply_id ]

Then you contribute it back as a patch to CMFDefault.DiscussionItem.py :)

Tres.
