I think if the "Privacy: none" present then one can use either use
display caller from "From" header or it can use User Part from RPID
header. If it has "Privacy : user" then one must not display the caller
id from RPID instead it should use "From" header which is "Anonymous".

That was my interpretation as well.

Nevertheless, the behaviour I witnessed from Sonus is:

* If 'Privacy: none' is present, RPID URI user part is not taken into 
account as calling party number, but only From URI.

* If 'Privacy' header is removed entirely, RPID URI user part is used as

the calling number.

I did not try any other values of the 'Privacy' header.

I cannot find any RFC or draft that makes explicit the connection 
between the 'Privacy' header and the concept of privacy as rendered in 
RPID.  Yet, that's the only explanation I could come up with.
