Tony, I think that's basically what I did with the Grandstream GXP2000 I was using (and it did work). My phone had one extension assigned to it. I dialed one conference, and then used the CONF button to connect to the other conference. It seems a little "clunky", in that one of the users would manually have to connect the two conferences (and remain connected for the duration). I think having a CLI softphone running in the background (maybe on one of the SipXecs servers if possible) might be a little simpler if I can get it to work automatically.
