[Asterisk-Users] Forward but wait for acknowledgement

I've been trying to find a way to connect incoming calls to my cell phone
when I'm not in the office.  I would like to have asterisk call the cell
phone (or any other phone for that matter), and provide me the option to
connect to the call.

I figure I could park the call, use /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing/ to
generate a call to the cell phone and put it into a context somewhere.
Now I've got both devices connected to asterisk.  What is the best way to
handle the extension logic to connect them?

I figure I can park the call and after the cell phone call is connected,
just retrieve the parked call.  How do I handle the cases when the cell
phone isn't answered?  I would want to unpark and transfer to voicemail,
but am not sure how to act on the parked call like that.


Am I even close to something that could work?


Steve
