Great!

I think you'd be better off starting from Empathy
(http://live.gnome.org/Empathy), which already provides both features and
is built on the same communications platform (Telepathy) that Sugar
already uses.

Yes. PiTiVi is the ideal starting point.

Definitely talk to the Telepathy developers (on their mailing list and
#telepathy on freenode).  They are very helpful.
