asterisk users - Mar 2007 - Conference server (or how to make a call withmore than 3 u

Use Snom phones. 
We have had around 6 participants, without problems. In theory you should be
able to have around 12 people on a conference on a snom phone.

I need the person who initiated the conference call to call the others and join
them by herself. If I understand correctly, with the MeetMe you have to
initialize the conference and then people dial by themselves into it. This
won't be acceptable by the secretaries here...

I have a few Snom phones here - people do not like them...

I don't think this is true. The Snoms do not have enough
CPU power for 12 people in a conference *on the phone*. And
I doubt that it works for 6. Does it?
