1. Retrieves bookings made from Outlook (https://github.com/cilt-uct/obs-webservice) and adds a "My Videos" tool linked to Vula [Sakai (https://github.com/sakaiproject/sakai)].
2. Communicates with Opencast (https://github.com/opencast/opencast) to:

• Link to personal series or
• Create personal series if it doesn't exist.

NOTE: if you just want this functonality it is available in this plugin: Galicaster Select User (https://github.com/cilt-uct/galicaster-select-user).

3. Integrates with the Powermate Button to trigger recordings.
