There probably isn't functionality for this built in to MeetMe right now.

Here's a suggestion:

1)Build a simple database to contain your groups and members.
2)Build a webpage to allow selection of the group you want to start the 
conference with.
3)On submit from step2, dump a .call file for each agent that should be 
in the conference that dials the user, and patches them into MeetMe.
4)Click said link/button.
5)Wait for users to all beep in.

Additionally...

6) Release said code to sourceforge or similar so that others can 
use/enhance.

If you're interested in building this suggestion, or having someone 
build it for you, please let me know. I would be interested in working 
on the script, but have no use for it personally at this time. If 
someone else is interested, I'd be inclined to devote some compute 
cycles to it.
