asterisk users - Feb 2012 - Queuemember status before calling the Queue command

I'd like to check the status of queue members before issuing the queue
command so I can play an announcement if all the queue members are
unavailable. Using 'joinempty' doesn't work because I want the
caller to be
able to join the queue after the announcement has played. I would prefer to
accomplish this in the dialplan. Any thoughts?

thanks

Use the Group() function to track queue usage and availability.
