I have a limited acquaintance with the app_meetme.c code, having also
modified it for my own purposes in the past.

For some historical perspective, you should know that originally in
1.6, talker optimization was forced on, with no way to turn it off.
Many people reported that it sounded awful, and patches were released
to make optimization be off by default, with a flag to turn it on, the
way it was in 1.4

There are more details, especially as regards versions were various
patches from trunk were merged into the releases, but that's the very
quick version. If you want bug numbers, please check out
http://issues.asterisk.org and search for talker optimization and
meetme.

When I first tried to use MeetMe with 1.6, I had a lot of
voice-cut-out problems, which I was able to verify were caused by
over-aggressive talker optimization, resulting in me going to 1.6.1.*
series as that series at that time had the 'optimization off by
default' feature that I wanted.

>From a quick glance at your patch, I would say that it probably tries
to address the audio quality problems I and others were experiencing.
It's possible, and probably likely that somebody else already fixed
this. Please be sure to check through the issues, and make sure you
compare your work against app_meetme.c in trunk, as your work will NOT
make it into asterisk by posting it to asterisk-users. If you didn't
already know, you should know that SVN is often way ahead of the
1.6.0. series for many reasons. For the latest versions for each 1.6
series, you should check through:
