Maybe this 'hop-count' header MUST be incremented (or decremented as
originally suggested) by a cache which receives an object from a peer
if and only if:
        - the peer that gave the object is a parent for the given URL
        and
        - the local cache is going to store this object

Hm?

Cheers,
Bertold
