In fact, this is how it works (the marks are not really deleted but 
closed). But I do not know exactly how to render the closed marks. After 
a while, there would be a lot of noisy "closed marks"... So I preferred 
to hide them and say that they have been deleted.

You can see the "deleted" marks by adding "&old=true" at the end of the 
URL of an RSS feed or of a GPX file.

No problem for me.
On the first hand, it is fully functional for what it is intended to be. 
On the other hand, there are still some little annoying bugs.

This is useful for me to improve the service. I may remove it after a 
while. I think I have corrected the '_gat' javascript error (which seems 
to be because of an google-analytics-blocker on your browser).
The best way to block Google-Analitycs is to use a proxy filter :

Anyway, OpenStreetBugs is hosted by Google (I made OSB to discover 
appengine). So, I inform you that if they really want to track your 
moves on OSB... they can... with or without google analytics.

> at the moment the RSS feed doesn´t work here.

There are some little glitches, but it seems to work for me.
Don't take a zoom too low or the RSS feed will be empty (I have to hide 
the RSS feed link when the zoom is too low).
Also, only the new marks appear in the RSS feed, not the marks with new 
comments. Should I change this policy ?

Done. :)
