Hi Aman

I think if your C/C++ knowledge is strong enough, you should be able
to dive in without much Qt experience, and just pick up Qt along the
way. The Qt documentation and tutorials are wonderful. But that's my
way of doing things -- diving in and trying to figure out as you go
along. I just find that more interesting and get bored otherwise. Now,
that might or might not work for you.

The hardest part, really, is getting things to build in a neatly
set-up build environment. See
http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Build for help. Also, yes, IRC
is a great place to ask for help -- particularly, #kde-devel and
#kde-git.

Like Nikhil points out, working on Core KDE is hard. It's also hard
because library development is a bit more complicated than application
development.

Regards
Akarsh
