Ripple is not a zero-trust coin (you need a federation of trusted server to run it).

I think the comparison would be unfair, so I vote no.

First of all, Ripple != XRP ("ripples")

Anyways, you can run the open source server yourself and all you need (as with any other listed coin on that site) is just to use the globally accepted main chain of blocks (or in Ripple's case: ledgers).
I don't see where ANY kind of trust is needed to send or receive XRP, maybe you can point me to the code portions in question?

I would re-list XRP under the name "ripples", NOT "Ripple".

Also I am not sure how to deal with the "total supply" part - after all theoretically all XRP could be transacted at any time (while only ~12 million BTC out of 21 million can be used atm.), on the other hand a huge part of these will first be handed out before being used for trade. I guess any solution would be fine, just please make sure that "Ripple" != "XRP (ripples)".

Ripple is a decentralized exchange.

The native asset there is called "ripple(s)" or XRP.

This asset has features that are very similar to any other asset on other block chains, e.g. BTC, LTC... and some unique ones, like being destroyed when transactions take place on Ripple (the exchange). They can be transacted and traded (and are intended to be!), so I would see them on one level functionally with any other "coin" listed on that page.

No

No way..

I hope Ripple can be "pardoned" before xmas ... so far "no" and "no way" are not really good reasons.

The XRP rate is only relevant within the Ripple network so I'm unsure.  The currency not meant to directly buy goods and services.

Needs to pass the Crypto Sniff Test:

1) Is it a coin that can be spent freely?
2) Is it decentralised and anonymous?
3) Is the code open source?

If YES to all three, then it is a bonafide crypto currency that can be traded freely. If NO to any, then its not a crypto currency.
KISS principle.

Yeah, get I listed, the more alts on there the better as far as I'm concerned!
