However it doesn't look as if it's possible to pass parameters this way which means that data can only be passed to the "extension" via variables. That works but isn't so clean. I'll check this out further shortly. I'm planning later to pass info like "which gateway to talk to" and perhaps some sort of flag which indicates "record: yes/no", and even include the bridge application into this extension/macro. That reduces the original dialplan pattern matching to a much simpler and easier to configure setup for me. excecute_extension does avoid a lot of redundancy, so thanks for the pointer. I'll get that working first.
