[asterisk-users] Answer Confirmation with SIP/AIX channels

[ASTERISKLIST at KEYWAYS.COM]

We need incoming calls to simultaneously ring SIP phones, and a cell phone
which is called via a SIP or IAX trunk.  When the cell phone answers we'd
like a brief prompt played (e.g. "press # to accept call") and if # is pressed
connect the incoming call to the cell phone.

ZAP trunks have some of this functionality with the call confirmation option,
but we must use SIP or IAX trunks.

Follow-me does not appear to do this since we want simultaneous ring of all 
SIP phones, and the cell phone.  Follow-me appears to ring one device for
a period of time, then the second device for a period of time, then the third
...

The answer confirmation option is required to prevent cell phone company 
messages (e.g. the phone is turned off or out of the calling area) from
accepting the call (and stop ringing on all the SIP phones).

If this is not currently possible, we are interested in offering a bounty to
make it possible.

Thanks.
