FWIW, using call files:

Here is the relevant section of the dialplan:

exten => 300,1,Noop(creating conference)
	same => n,Set(conf_name=conf-${RAND(1,1000)})
	same => n,System(/etc/asterisk/scripts/callgenerator SIP/dev1 ${conf_name})
	same => n,System(/etc/asterisk/scripts/callgenerator SIP/dev2 ${conf_name})
	same => n,MeetMe(${conf_name},dFI1xAC)
	same => n,Noop(do post conference stuff)

... and here is the script /etc/asterisk/scripts/callgenerator:

#!/bin/bash
PHONE=$(echo $1 |cut -f2 -d"/")
ROOM=$2
echo "Channel: $1" > /var/spool/asterisk/tmp/${PHONE}.call
echo "Application: MeetMe" >> /var/spool/asterisk/tmp/${PHONE}.call
echo "Data: ${ROOM},dFI1x" >> /var/spool/asterisk/tmp/${PHONE}.call
mv -f /var/spool/asterisk/tmp/${PHONE}.call /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing


PS: Thanks much to Yaroslav for his help :)
