[Freeswitch-users] Remote pickup of on-hold extensions

Personally I'd just use the Blind Transfer features on your handsets. 1000
picks up the call, presses transfer on the phone, then dials 1001 and hangs
up. 1001 rings and is connected to the transferred call. Sure you'e not got
the BLF, but the idea works fine. You could use call parking, but that has
more steps to it.
