[Freeswitch-users] Running a session asynchronously from a Lua script

[Adam Wilt]

Brian,

Thanks for the reply.
The problem is I don't want the two parties to speak to each other. I want
one party to wait on hold while the system interacts with the other party.
Then the system will hang-up on the second party and start interacting with
the first party again.

Thanks,
Adam
