I added a query parm to the path of the xap file, so that I can manage it through Versioning.

            Response.Write(string.Format("Build: {0}.{1}.{2}.{3}", v.Major.ToString(), v.Minor.ToString(), v.Build.ToString(), v.Revision.ToString()));
        return string.Format("{0}.{1}.{2}.{3}", v.Major.ToString(), v.Minor.ToString(), v.Build.ToString(), v.Revision.ToString()
    }
}
