446389 - New conference numbers for planning meeting calls

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

I was wondering if it would be possible to set up an 8*** conference number with the following:
 
  - mute on join
  - confirmation announcement upon join
  - entrance beeps for those on the call
  - goodbye boops for those on the call

Having one or two of these would be good for large group meetings.

Upping to major so that it gets some attention, maybe? Or an ETA?

Er, sorry, this only takes a couple minutes to do, just got distracted by OSCON.

Be right back with the numbers.

>   - confirmation announcement upon join

Just to clarify, what did you have in mind for this?  Did you want it to announce to the room who the person is that's joining when someone joins? (It'll prompt them to record their name before they join), or do you just mean the message to the user joining that they're entering the conference?

You can use 8605 and 8606 for these, I'll leave this open until we clarify the settings you want.

(and those can be changed on the fly at any time anyway)

Just a beep when they come in and a boop when they leave, like on usual conference numbers, but unlike 8600 where they're suppressed.

Thanks!
