How are deletes purged?
On the server, deletes are either kept in a tombstone table, or simply tracked by some sort of active/status flag in the primary table. Since this version of Sync Services isn’t tightly coupled to SQL Server, we actually don’t do anything. In general, we’d expect the DBA to write a scheduled task to purge tombstone records on their determined interval. You can expect us to do more in the “future”, tease, tease, tease… On the client, SQLce purges deleted records once it confirms data has been sent to the server.
