I also support this, but I have some minor questions/nits.

 I am assuming that the second part of the namespaces (- 000009, -00000A, 
-00000B, etc.) are to be interpreted as "character strings" and not as 
hexadecimal numbers.  But at first glance they LOOK like hex numbers, so 
it might help future readers by pointing it out.

In the first full text paragraph of section 2, it says:
"A namespace from the above list will not be considered for 
   preferential treatment over another namespace unless local policy 
   has configured a SIP entity processing two messages (each with 
   different namespaces) as being equivalent (see section 8 of RFC 4412
   [RFC4412] for this detailed)."

I don't think this should be restricted to "a namespace from the above 
list".  This applies to  ANY namespace (whether one of the currently 
registered ones, one of the ones defined in this ID, or one to be 
standardized in the future).

And then the part that starts "The reality of this is..." would be clearer 
if it said  something like "For the case where they have not been defined 
as equivalent, the reality is..." (Otherwise, a reader might think that 
the antecedent for "this" was  "local policy has configured a SIP entity 
processing two messages (each with  different namespaces) as being 
equivalent".)

The rest of the paragraph talks about a message or call with dsn-000001.8 
not having preferential treatment over a message with dsn-000010.0.  I 
think it would be useful to state (rather than waiting for the reader to 
deduce) that  the call associated with the dsn-000010.0 RPH cannot be 
preempted by, nor can it preempt,  the call associated with the 
dsn-000001.8 namespace.

The next paragraph says:
"The dash '-' character is just like any other character, and is not 
   to be considered a delimiter in any official way within any 
   namespace here.  This MAY change in future efforts."

This use of "MAY" does not seem to be consistent with RFC 2119, so it 
should probably be "may" instead of "MAY". But even with a small "may" it 
is not clear what this means.  If this ID becomes an RFC, and then someone 
wants to register the namespace "A-B-C", what, if any impact will the 
statement "This may change in future efforts" have on the ability to 
register "A-B-C"?

Subject: [Sip] WGLC for draft-ietf-sip-rph-new-namespaces-00

(As SIP WG chair)

Keeping up the pressure on you people out there doing the reviewing.

This is to announce a WGLC for 

"IANA Registration of New Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)
Resource-Priority Header Namespaces"

Contained in 

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-sip-rph-new-namespaces-00
.txt

The Working group last call is for two weeks until close of business on
Wednesday 14th November 2007.

Please submit any comments to the SIP list and to the editor.

I have solicited a number of independent reviews in parallel to this,
for which some have already been provided. These will be taken into
account in the WGLC.

Regards

Keith
