We have several people in our church that recently became
disabled. I am
thinking of setting up an asterisk server and several phone lined so
that they can call in to church during services to listen to the
service.
If it were me, I would:
1. create a conference room
2. create a .call file that dials into the speaker system
3. create .call files to dial the participants, muting them
This can obviously be scripted very easily. A simple cron job copying
the .call files should do nicely. If the disabled persons wish to no
longer participate, you can simply delete that .call file; conversely,
if you need to add someone, you can just create another one. Then you
won't have to worry about incoming phone numbers and coordinating with
the private school, you can bring it in when you need it, etc.
That does simplify it a bit - but is probably not flexible enough. I
don't want to have to have someone call and request to be added to the
conference if they are sick sunday morning. We will publish the number
for anyone in the congregation to use as they need it. For those that
always listen at home tho this would work fine.
Oh and we will also want to record the services so that if someone wants
a copy or to listen later they can call in to listen or we can burn then
a copy. So I'll need to program a recording menu system that is somewhat
automated and lists the last few weeks of services by date or something.
We are currently using freeconferencecall.com but it is a long distance
call from church and from all of our members.
