[asterisk-users] Callback / Camp / Extention Free notify?

[Don Kelly]

Sorry, Dan,

 

At this point, I'm all talk and no performance.

 

The snippets that you included in your original post looked like you were
getting close to what you wanted to do.

 

It would be great if the Asterisk community had a simple library of classic
PBX features that we could go to to implement legacy features like this.

You're right--he's looking for a camp-on feature, but the campon link that
you found is more of a queuing feature.
 
A properly-implemented camp-on feature has some advantages.
 
The caller has full use of their phone while waiting for the call-back. They
can make outgoing calls and receive incoming calls. They don't need to keep
the handset to their ear or listen to music-on-hold in their headset.
 
The called party won't be bothered by an incoming call unless the caller is
actually prepared to talk to them (if you're waiting in-queue for 45
minutes, there is a .993 probability that the call will be answered in the
three minutes while you duck out to go to the bathroom).
  


Yes this appears to be what I am looking for.
Do you know of any sites that should how to implement it correctly.
As the sites that I have found are all like the voip-info wiki that Jeff
sent.
Or even some snipits from dialplan?
