[Telepathy] Introducing Sharat

[Sharat Attupurath]

Hello,

 I am Sharat. I am doing engineering in Computer Science. I am very much interested in involving in the open source community but haven't been able to find a way in.

I use empathy (on ubuntu 11.04) and I always felt that the indication (the image in the tab bar) when the other person is typing is not easily noticeable. So I decided to try and change it to something like displaying 'user is typing...' as in other chat applications. I downloaded the source code and was overwhelmed going through it. I found the function updating the chat window tab but I couldn't understand as I am entirely new to GTK. 

How should I proceed with this? Is it necessary to have a  very good knowledge of GTK? I don't know how to start. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Sharat
