Link
A new version of the Windows ACK (and the SDK) is now available to download. This new version of the ACK will be enforced by the Store certification system in December, but you can start using it right now to improve the quality of your applications. Among other new tests and improvements, this new version will verify that the app icon shown in the Store is not the default one. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/desktop/hh852363
