 * Hi,
 * I’ve been playing with the new post types in 3.0b1 and they’re truly great, really
   easy to set up and are going to make my life a lot easier. But I need help in
   trying to manipulate the admin interface.
 * If I set up two new post types I’ll get this in the admin menu …
    - Post Type One
 *  - Add New
    - Edit
 *  - Post Type Two
 *  - Add New
    - Edit
 * Which is all very well and good, but I need a little more control to produce 
   something like…
    - My Post Types
 *  - Add New Post Type One
    - Edit Post Type One
    - Add New Post Type Two
    - Edit Post Type Two
 * But I can’t seem to find any documentation on how to do this.
 * Also, if I turn the ‘show_ui’ in register_post_type to false so that I can use
   the post type without the admin menu I lose the Publish box from the Add New/
   Edit Post Type page.
 * Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 * Thanks!

 * No, dumb me. This is in the Beta forum. Looked at the patch and seen it was `
   @since 3.0.0` so assumed that was included in 3.0.1. Added the patch into `post.
   php` and `menu.php`. Working great. I +1 this in the future.
