I would guess that the right place to do such a job would be within the 
astman-proxy project... that would also give you call-control facilities 
over multiple asterisk boxen, as well as relieve you from having to 
write the proxy code. We here ("here" is  a Greek telco) are currently 
considering implementing a Call Control interface in that manner, we 
just haven't decided yet which one this should be (TCAP and CSTA are 
among these) - there might even be some hope of effort-saving if project 
timings converge.
