This "forum" is actually a mailing list mirrored to Usenet, so whatever you post gets instantly emailed out to the list members, and also gets sent to all the Usenet servers throughout the world. So by the time you want to edit your post, it's already in my email box. You're accessing it via Google Groups, but it's not really an online forum. It just looks like one. Google Groups may let you delete your message within Groups, but out here on the mailing list where I am, and on Usenet where others read, you definitely can't. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
