Hi Damon,
yes you have filed an ICLA!
You are listed here:

In other terms: welcome! I hope you stay a while as this project can
really need a few hands :-)
If you are interested on the ASF, please check this link:

If you have any questions around the foundation, I am glad to help. I am
a so-called "mentor" to this project and here to help people finding
their way to the ASF. Just ping this list or me directly.
Cheers

Hey Guys,
From memory I think I filed an ICLA previously, and yes I'm happy to
pitch
in with the work that Gord is proposing also (which is slightly more
extensive than what is included in the existing PR).
Cheers,
Damon.

Although I don't not understand from Ripple as much as I wished, this

maybe be used to mock server backend connections, right? I have

that use case that a guy who helps me in his prime time on my project
would
prefer not to install the huge, real java server but just work with
some
json first.
Damon mentioned he is willing to contribute his feature. If he would
file
an ICLA and donates we could take this commit directly. Furthermore I
see a
good chance to welcome a new team member in a while. :-)

We had a fork a little while ago that added the ability to have
custom
middleware for the Ripple server [1].
Basically when adding path's to the ripple server it would detect
the
presence of a ripple-middleware.js file and require and load it into
the
express app.
This is an amazing feature and would give us a lot of power for
integrating
in some third party plugins and extensions.
I am thinking we should take inspiration from this commit and create
a
middleware injection system for ripple.
I would think we need to support global middleware (loaded for every
project) as well as project based middleware (loaded from a file in
the
project folder, much like the pull request does now)
Starting this thread to talk about high level design goals for this
feature
as well as debating if it is required.
Usecases:
- Custom route overrides
- Browserifying content
- Other fun stuff
- Simulating Lagging of content. This would be awesome!
