title: How to use Assembly Binding Redirection to ignore revision and build numbers
body: <p>I have several .NET applications in C#, along with an API for them to access the database. I want to put all versions of the API in the database, and have them pick the highest revision and build number, but stick with the major and minor number they were built with. Basically when I reference API <code>1.2.3.4</code> I want the reference to read <code>1.2.*.*</code> so that the applications just pick up <code>1.2.3.5</code> I see I can do this with XML config files. I'd rather have it complied in. Similar to publish policies, but with out the extra files. I could settle for that. The other issue is all solutions I see redirect one version to another specific version, not just to any version newer.</p>
  
  <p>How do I do this?</p>
  
  <p>Can someone point me to an informative source for publisher policy?</p>
