Swamynathan, the folks at work[1] had released SimpleVNC[2] some time last month, it has ports for Windows and MacOS X ... so you might want to work on a Linux port. Plus you don't have to start from scratch. We use it in a IM product we're making, but it's GPL-ed so you can do as you please with it.
