[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Publishing, Suppressing, or Unpublishing?

[Dyson-Smith, Bridger]

Corey,

Thanks for that! I was reading through update-a-resource yesterday but
discarded that since I didn't see publish explicitely in the API
example. Whoops :).

I really appreciate your example, that's *very* helpful!

Best,
Bridger
