Hello Peter.
I've just sent an email about it here in ml, anyway i'll introduce briefly
here. I'm mostly working on the media content side of silk and I'm currently
trying to write a decent api capable of querying web services like youtube,
vimeo, picasa, flickr to get online media content easily available to
applications. Have a read at the "[Draft].." thread. I've currently
developed a codebase for the video side of this project, the picture side is
still to be done even if a dataengine is ready already.
You could for sure give a hand with this project if you wish. The main goal
is to have a working api even with scripting support capabilities.

Hoping to have been helpful,
cheers.
