Hi Sharat

Thanks for showing interest in Empathy.
It shouldn't be very difficult to figure out if you are clear with your
basics. You can learn GTK/GLib as you go.

Just dive in. As your interest develops, you can find more bugs to fix
here- https://bugzilla.gnome.org/browse.cgi?product=empathy

Cheers!
