asterisk users - Jul 2005 - play message to callee before connecttoincomingcall

yes, robert, but how do i "join" the two legs inside a call file or
in the dialplan?

i have experienced that call files can do a call to a channel and
if this call is answered it can either be connected to an extension
inside a context or call an application with parameters.

Ah, now that's a clearer picture of what you're after.

Perhaps you need to create a call file that then joins the two legs of 
the call afterwards?

I beleive queues will do it all for you.
http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk+config+queues.conf
Use this part to play the sound to the callers:
........
;queue-youarenext = "queue-youarenext" ; ("You are now first in
line.")
........
and use:
........
;announce = queue-markq
........
To announce what you want to the callee

Hope this helps

Well, if you're already comfortable with AGI and realtime, I should 
think you could work something out with MeetMe, Conference or 
ParkandAnnounce.
