What I would suggest you do is to split this down into a list of small tasks, such as showing the correct list of contacts, 1-1 text chat, and then account-management. For each task, discuss it on the mailing list before you even start, we have a lot of reusable components particularly in terms of the models, and a lot of that is undergoing some large changes at the moment. The more we can re-use, particularly between the plasmoids and this, the easier it will be to maintain. Now for a lot of questions: Where is your code currently, do you use any sort of revision control system (i.e git). Do you have a KDE developer account? Do you have a device that can run Plasma Active? Given you are working on this for university, do you have a deadline you have to finish by? Dave BTW, we tend to hang out on #kde-telepathy on Freenode. Even if you're not much of an IRC guy, it's worth talking to us.
