asterisk users - Feb 2005 - Advanced Conferencing options with out-of-tree modules?

I've been poking at setting up a proof-of-concept * server
as a replacement for our commercial conferencing solution.

I've been through the wiki and list archives, and think
I have found a combination that provides the features we
want/need.

The combination of applications CBMysql and MeetMe2 seem to
address our goals.  I have MeetMe2 working.  CBMysql is
another story, the code looks simple enough and has been
modified to leverage MeetMe2, but * restarts everytime it
tries to launch CBMysql.  I cannot find any examples of how
to launch it from the dial plan, nor have I been able to 
get any meaningful debug logs.

Has anyone used the CBMysql application and can provide 
pointers on the how to launch it?  

* is version 1.0.5

Many thanks,
Dan
