Whichever codec you use, asterisk needs to be able to transcode to slin
so that the channels can be mixed (and back again).

Since only Asterisk 1.6.x comes shipped with a G.722 codec, then you are
restricted to using this. (there isn't a stable release from 1.6.x yet).

Dependant on hardware, asterisk should be able to support 20 users in a
conference. I've used Page(<phones>,d) with lots of phones before, and
it seems to work. (creates a dynamic conference with listed phones in it).
