Thought this recent blog post & github repo would be of interest:

Our group, as with many others in Opencast Community, have relied on a wide 
range of interim solutions for media processing. We have used Podcast Producer 
for video encoding workflows. And following the constructivist footsteps of the 
UC Berkeley podcasting model, our team had to write it's own code to get PCP to 
work in a way that would benefit our overall media production practices.

The result is Angeldust, a library to interface with Podcast Producer via HTTP 
API. It requires restclient 0.10.1 and a patched version of httplib2 (to 
support some weird HTTP Auth headers). So far it can:

-- get the list of workflows
-- upload a file to a specified workflow

A full description of the how's and why's are available in this blog post by 
CCNMTL programmer analyst Anders Pearson, "How to Get PCP on the Web."
