Subject: Replication and filters, deletion of documents
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-15; format=flowed

Hi List,

is it possible to filter out deleted documents for replication?

If you have 2 database, one holding all documents (db1), the other only 
a subset (db2). As I understand replication you can have a filtered 
replication from db1 to db2 and a non filtered from db2 to db1.
What happens to a document if once was replicated on a later replication 
cycle doesn't fit the filter criteria any more?
Is it possible to delete documents on db2 and don't replicate this 
deletion back to db1?

regards,
Stefan
