Is there an Atom spec or extension that you could point to that might contain a method for determining this? My guess is we'd show some shell of the entry, with the correct id, at the timestamp it was deleted. (But only to authorized users, probably.)

(I hope this isn't a duplicate entry.... I thought I had responded on friday but haven't seen it show up yet)

There is the so-called 'tombstone extensions' (http://tools.ietf.org/wg/atompub/draft-snell-atompub-tombstones-02.txt) that solve this problem nicely... The other option is a 'trash' feed.

personally I'd prefer a tombstone approach, that way they show up with new & modified entries and can be dealt with at when new & modified entries are dealt with (no extra special step to check for deleted entries)
