Hi everyone
We actually had alike problem:
- "user" of a system can have multiple SIP accounts (to be able to
receive calls on several devices, I suppose he cannot use only one SIP
account, because there's only one peer registered, in this case)
- to call that user and reach him with guarantee on ALL his devices
(because he might be AFK and only have one of his smartphones in the
pocket, which might be sleeping and not registered at all) we've tried
several approaches and and had to stick to repetitive "Dial / send
pushes" loop
- because neither Dial nor Queue does not add newly registered devices
at the course of a call
Would be nice if, say, I dial Alice&Bob&Clair, and Bob is offline (not
registered), but gets push received on his iPhone, wakes up and
registers BEFORE Alice or Clair have replied, Dial would begin with him
too. But that is not the case, I believe
Queue is not a solution also, unfortunately, first of all because of
heavy overweight (you have to create and destroy queues on-the-fly per
each call, because if you create them in advance for every user,
Asterisk turns into zombie - it has a HUGE performance impact). Also I
believe there were problems with dropping call on all the devices if it
was cancelled by caller or dropped on one of the devices by callee.
FindMe would seem like a solution, but we did not actually use it
because of having to press buttons to accept a call.
In short, so far I think there is a room for improvement because a case
seems to be trivial, however, it's implementation with Asterisk is
anything but that.
Would be happy to know where I am wrong.. I am writing this off memory,
so may be skipping something

Because when somebody has their phone off, the caller gets a voicemail
immediately.
