Make extensions that can hold a call. (like a 701)
Make this extension hintable for use in button programming.
If I am on a call and hit a non-lit button, it parks it there.
If I am not on a call and push the lit button, I connect to the park.
I suppose that if you are on a call and hit a lit button, it should either not be processed, or should join as a three way call. (either logic is justifiable)
These park extensions should still be callable so analog, etc. extensions can 
also connect to them.

Steven,

That arrangement would be great, but right now the closest existing method is the metermaid patch at http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=5779, and it looks like that won't even make it into 1.4. Sigh. (oej: people need this patch!)

I created a bounty two years ago at http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+bounty+snom+call+park for an arrangement like you describe, but there was no interest, so I dropped sponsorship of it. You can "take over" the bounty if you like.

I'm using the metermaid patch on 1.2.6, and it works very nicely with my Snom 360s. (Press a "700" button to park, and observe the 701-7xx button LEDs to see parking slot status).

- Mike
