Can you give more info what you plan to do?

If you don't care for conferences name and they can be numbers then just make one extension and then use that extension or part of
it to name conference.

If you want to make conference leader then make 2 separate extensions, in second extension which is used for not leaders use that
conference command. 'conference xxx bgdial <endpoint>'.In current SVN, bgdial does not create new conference it must exists to
make that command.

This can be make just by dial plan. If you plan to control FS from any language then you have much more abilities.
