Response
I finally received word on what you can do to recover your bookmarks: send an email to support and they will send you back a database dump of all the bookmarks that you saved under private.bookmarks.
I’ll look at an easier solution than this, I have the master xml dump of the bookmarks, I can probably do something with these.
Update
Still no news on the Yahoo/del.icio.us conundrum.
If you’ve seen the source code, you might see that I don’t actually store any of the private bookmarks you have saved, otherwise it might be easier to recover the missing bookmarks.
In implementing priv.at this was a deliberate decision to help protect the privacy of bookmarkers, however now it seems to be somewhat of a mistake relying on a third party webservice to store the data.
If all comes to naught with del.icio.us, I will begin work on using the del.icio.us API to reconstruct the private bookmarks and migrate to a new account, I will keep you updated through this wiki page.

Service Outage
we had a service outage tonight—ran out of the disk space, oops!
turns out that apache logs get big quickly when you are doing a lot of ajax requests
mysql doestn’ appreciate not having any disk space, so table done got corrupted
table is repaired, service is up again, yay….
Down...
priv.at is currently offline as del.icio.us stopped servicing the api requests to add bookmarks. Hopefully it will be working again soon.
