Hi Gary,
You don't have to use FreeSWITCH with BigBlueButton. You can use Asterisk as
well, and therefore forward the calls from one asterisk server to another
(which is really an asterisk question, not a BigBlueButton question).
For accepting calls from any five digit extension, see
http://code.google.com/p/bigbluebutton/wiki/FAQ#Why_did_my_voice_conference_number_work_in_0.7_but_not_in_0.71?
As for modifying demo3.jsp, see

Thanks for the quick response. I wish I would have found that article
sooner. Maybe you could put a link to that article under the section
titled: How do I forward calls from my Asterisk server to FreeSWITCH in
BigBlueButton?
I set my server up with FreeSwitch since that is what was recommended on
your website.
Do you think it would be better that I run BBB with Asterisk since I have
another Asterisk server?
Would the sound quality be better?
Thanks for your help!
Gary

Hi Gary,
With BigBlueButton 0.71a (the current release), the sound quality should be the
same with both asterisk and FreeSWITCH.
With the upcoming BigBlueButton 0.8, we're switching to using the speex codec
from Flash, which is natively supported in FreeSWITCH 1.6, but not in Asterisk
1.4.2.
Speex will give higher quality audio, see
http://groups.google.com/group/bigbluebutton-dev/browse_thread/thread/a36d61df9b9fc45b#
We'll still support asterisk/nellymoser, but FreeSWITCH/speex will give you
higher quality audio in 0.8.

Need to improve our documentation on integrating with external SIP providers.
