A couple of questions about deletion and deactivation of nodes

[LinearGradient]

Hi,

I had a couple of questions regarding deletion and deactivation of nodes.

1. Is there an API call for both deleting and deactivating a node?
2. Apart from event handling options, are there any other ways to configure CQ5 so that when descendants of a node N are added/remove/changed on an author instance, the changes are synced to the publish instance? For example by using a special property on the node?

1.    Need to use Listener ex:- ReplicationListener

2.     If node type is cq:page you can configure & for other type need to custom implement.
