   Latest Challenges - 
   So I was experimenting with the revalidate plugin since it seems to be the 
most viable option for us, I stumbled upon a problem. How can one use this 
plugin in a cache hierarchy?
   
   My test - 
   1) cache a piece of content on a child and a parent node.
   2) set the revalidate.config file (the plugin config file) with the contents 
domain regex and an expiry (on child and parent)
   3) request for the same content, the child server sends out a conditional 
request to parent server, but the parent server itself verifies whether the 
content changed or not, i.e. acting on behalf of the origin server. Shouldn't 
the request not go to the origin server to verify whether the content changed 
or not?
   4) if the content has not changed parent server gives out 304 which again 
should be a responsibility of the origin server.
   
   Am I missing something in the test case? Please help me progress in this 
problem.
