Since OpenSkos has a REST API that supports CRUD actions, it surprised me that the OAI-PMH server does not support deletes. These are relevant to any harvester and therefor I can't see why this shouldn't be supported. The result of this request http://openskos.org/oai-pmh?verb=Identify shows that deletedRecords = no. More detail on this OAI-PMH feature here: http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/openarchivesprotocol.html#DeletedRecords. I would expect at least 'transient', but would prefer 'persistent'. When will OpenSkos support this feature?
