[Matthew Markell <markellmtthw@xxxxxxx>]

Cassidy, I have some work started on this at 
lp:~markellmtthw/+junk/web-contracts

There is some work that needs to be done getting a build system setup 
(it's source only currently) and getting launchpad's packing service 
configured for it. I am not very good at this part of the process, so 
if anyone would like to import this code into Cassidy's project and 
then setup building, packaging, etc, then I would be more then happy to 
continue working on the code. Currently, I have Imgur, Pastebin and 
Videobin contracts and uploaders in that branch with more planned.
