We developed and maintain web-conferencing software using client/server technology and GSM codec for VOIP conferencing online. We have had requests for a feature to allow people to connect to conferences via phone by dialing in.<br>
<br>My FIRST question is: Could Asterisk be used to create an altered PABX where people wold dial into a number and then press a "pin" number that would connect them to one of our conference rooms.<br><br>I think there are several ways it could be done. One thing we have already is "streaming" the soud from a conference room in MP3, so this might be able to be impemented into Asterisk. The other option would be to have a "special client" connected into the conferenceroom that would then relay all sound to asterisk and any connected number.<br>
<br>My FOLLOWUP question the is if it is a pssibiity, who would be interested in developing this, at what cost, and how long would it take. Also, what additional things would we need on our end for it to work? (example: phone line(s), dedicated computer(s), DSL lines, etc.)<br>
<br><br>Thanks,<br>Steve<br>
