Brian, Thank you for putting me on the right track. I thought I would share my results so after a bit of trial and error testing I came up with the follow DP rule, which lives in dialplan/public/<my_public_dp.xml>. When an incoming call arrives for DDI 012345678 it is ack'ed with a "180 Ringing" and then the call is held up while the rule goes to sleep. On sleep expiry the call is cleared (from Ron McLeod's comment). This means any incoming call that is not processed using an API method will be automatically cleared after 3 mins. This makes a nice neat way of holing incoming calls ringing.

I have a setup where I have a variety of SIP inbound calls (originated from PSTN) coming from a SIP provider. The SIP lines are single lines registered with the provider. The provider is running with a Nortel CS2K. I am putting together a simple event driven operator attendant console and I would like to set up a call queuing system where the incoming calls are not answered until an operator is ready to accept a call. I want the operator to know that a call is in the ringing Q and who it is from. I do not want to auto answer the call and put them in a MOH Q because the originator will be charged as soon as the call is answered. My question is how do I get a SIP 180 ringing to be sent to an inbound call and put that call in a Q? The CS2k does convert ringing on inbound calls to media towards the originator. I've looked through the wiki for examples but not found what I need in either in dial plan or fifo operations. Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
