Sure, the right direction is the asterisk-users list. This list is for
discussion about the code of Asterisk itself.

To answer your question, try looking at the DB() function (which has
replaced the deprecated DBput and DBget applications). Have the first
call store ${CHANNEL} in the asterisk database under a key that the
second call will know about.

This assumes that you are running a version of Asterisk that has the
Bridge application, otherwise you won't be able to join the two channels.

Another way to do it would be using MeetMe with the M option.

If you need further ideas, please ask on asterisk-users, describing
in more detail what information is available to associate one call with
the other.

Cheers
Tony
