 Replying to [ticket:12974 johnonolan]:
 > Continuing with this example, if I write a post called "A Book" then the
 slug becomes example.com/books/a-book/ however /example.com/books/ returns
 a 404. This is where I'd like to see archive-post_type.php kick in.[[BR]]
 > [[BR]]
 > This seems like a fairly obvious one to me (in place of hacking around
 with pages and custom-page-templates)
 I somehow feel like you'll receive the same answer as I did John, with
 regards to my 'Taxonomy Thing' I spoke about which I'm sure plenty of
 people read, I know I talked to you about it! Again it'll be down to the
 WordPress Rewrite System, oh hang on, any alarm bells ringing here?
