environment, so forgive me if I use the wrong Asterisk/SIP terminology.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face=Arial><span style='font-size:12.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I need to make a product where calls come in go through
various menus and based on various configurations perform attended transfers,
blind transfers, and patch callers together.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face=Arial><span style='font-size:12.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>For patching two calls together, my thought is that this
would be a conference in Asterisk. Is this correct?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face=Arial><span style='font-size:12.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>For attended transfers, is there a way to perform this from
a dial plan? Or would I need to use AMI?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face=Arial><span style='font-size:12.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Also, with Asterisk transfers (SIP and PRI calls), will the
transferred call disappear from Asterisk? For example, with PRI QSIG
transfers, if the external switch allows it, both parties of a PSTN call are
removed from a switch and instead the parent switch becomes responsible for the
bridged calls.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
