Probably simple,  the hard part is digging through all the proprietary docs to find the API.  
But I have managed to reverse engineer part of the Call Pilot unified 
messaging API.  Since the next version of the BCM is LINUX based vs. 
Embedded-NT I'll probably wait until we upgrade.

Doesn't ogo already provide this via resources,  or do you mean the 
creation of conference bridges on the PBX?

I really think the job of notification should fall to XMPP.

Does Asterisk not support storing of messages in IMAP,  or managing 
messages via IMAP?  This is what Nortel's callpilot does,  it is actually a 
rather nice model.  Perhaps someone could add this to Asterisk?  Seems like 
using the code based from a simple IMAP server it should be reasonably 
simply to overlay the Asterisk spool directory.  This would give you 
something like 'real' unified messaging from any client,  including OGO.

Again seems like a job for XMPP.

Wildfire XMPP server has a very nice plugin that allows you to check 
presence via a single HTTP GET.
