Available, but IMO a little underdocumented.

Is there something other than just using the "s" option in the "MeetMe" 
invocation that allows the menu?

On my system, CVS-HEAD a/o this morning, hitting the star key causes an 
immediate error and then hangs up the channel:

Mar 14 22:54:33 WARNING[6970]: app_meetme.c:1006 conf_run: Error setting 
conference
     -- Hungup 'Zap/pseudo-972256349'

That's when I call in from a SIP phone.  It's more drastic when I try it 
from a Zap channel:

Mar 14 23:12:39 WARNING[7713]: app_meetme.c:1006 conf_run: Error setting 
conference
     -- Hungup 'Zap/pseudo-856744806'
   == Spawn extension (home, 2110, 1) exited non-zero on 'Zap/6-1'

Mar 14 23:12:39 WARNING[7713]: chan_zap.c:1237 reset_conf: Failed to 
reset conferencing on channel 6!
     -- Hungup 'Zap/6-1'

Now this channel is hosed, and I have to restart Asterisk to get it back 
again.

There's not a word at asteriskdocs.org when searching for MeetMe.

On the Wiki, all that's there is the same thing that's on the CLI help, 
which just says "Present menu (user or admin) when '*' is received 
('send' to menu)," but doesn't say whether any configuration is needed 
in order for it to do its thing--i.e. what "menu" is it being "sent" to?

Can anyone help understand what's going on?

Thx.

B.
