[wp-testers] Custom post type disappears when a postis un-published (Michael E. Hancock)

[Philip M. Hofer (Frumph)]

Cannot duplicate this problem., working fine over here, not changing the 
post-type using quick-edit or post-editor when setting to draft saving and 
setting back..


Not sure why you have: 'rewrite' => array('slug' => ''),  an empty slug. 
should just do 'rewrite' => false ya? or just not have it there at all
