Hopefully you're better at making changes to meetme than I was. My
changes weren't safe and I ended up clogging up my system with threads
(channels) that didn't complete. In general, I'd say:

1) make sure that you've checked trunk and that you're changes aren't
already part of a future release
2) make sure that what you're doing in your code changes can't be
performed in an equally valid way outside of meetme. In my case I was
trying to modify the way recording is performed on conferences, but it
was better to instead manipulate MixMonitor() from the dialplan. I
just didn't know that at the time.
3) once you have your changes in, try throwing a few hundred fake
calls at the system that exercise the code you changed, and make sure
you're not hanging channels like I did when I made code mistakes.

If you finish your changes and they don't break things, file a bug
reporting what you did so it can be part of a future release.
