In xCode 5 we have the ability to use the xcassets file to catalogue our app images. It appears that there is not a place for iTunesArtwork and iTunesArtwork2x files. Does this mean that these files are no longer needed in xCode 5? If they are needed, should we list them in the plist file? I had removed the icons list in the plist file and was hoping not to have to add it back again.

Some time ago you were supposed to include your icon in large format 512x512 and 1024x1024 in your bundle when submitting an app to the AppStore, But after some changes in Xcode and iTunesConnect this is no longer necessary, you upload these two files directly to iTunes Connect and are not required in your bundle anymore.
