I'd like to have an extension "join" a call. That is, C can join A and B, just as if it were an analog extension phone. ChanSpy works, sort of. The problem is that once A or B hangs up, the channel is gone. With an analog extension, C would remain connected with B if A hung up. Can I throw A and B into a confbridge and then add C? Create a new channel that grabs the A <-> B channel? Or is there a more straight forward way to do this? sean

See "Advanced Conferencing"[1] and "Conferencing with ConfBridge()"[2] Also, there is the Shared Line Appearance stuff in Asterisk[3]. That's a bit more confusing, but may help you as well. I'd recommend playing with both to really see if they work for your needs.
