Hi Marvin, I would call such a feature (letting multiple endpoints ring until the first answers) 'call forking'. Currently GnuGk doesn't support this. But what you can do is try multiple destinations with call failover: Define how long an endpoint may ring (AltertingTimeout), enable failover and let GnuGk try multiple endpoint one after another.
