> When running MeetMeList without specifying a conference (to get information on all conferences), an error is returned if no conferences exist.  I feel that this is not an error unless a 'Conference: <id>' is specified and does not exist.
> On an authenticated AMI connection send:
> Action: MeetMeList
> ActionID: 1234
> If no conferences exist, you receive:
> Response: Error
> ActionID: 1234
> Message: No active conferences.
> I would expect to instead receive:
> Response: Success
> ActionID: 1234
> Message: No active conferences.
> Or even:
> Response: Success
> EventList: start
> Message: Meetme user list will follow
> Event: MeetmeListComplete
> EventList: Complete
> ListItems: 0
> ****** ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ******
> Though minor this does require special error handlers for use with this action.
> I'm sure this has an effect on why I receive this error, no conferences are configured in meetme.conf.  I enter conferences in dialplan with:
> MeetMe(${DYN_CONFID},AdEFoq)
> So unless callers are in conferences none exist.  I use MeetMeList when connecting AMI to make sure I know of any that already exist, watch events for updates.
> The documentation is also incorrect for this command.  It states that 'Conference: <confno>' is a required variable though it is not.  Please do not make it required.  I'm aware of https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=17905, this patch would not replace the functionality currently provided by this command.
> Tested this on 1.6.2.8 and 1.6.2.12 with the same results.
