Hi Friedger,

I've updated AndAppStore.com to provide a versionCode in the update.xml 
as you requested.

At the moment anyone with applications listed will find that they can 
specify the versionCode in the details about a released version (not the 
application details page, the release details page).

I am working on code to pull the information from the manifest included 
in the apk, but this is a little way off yet.

Thanks for making this available.

Al.
