Hello!  Is ICPv2 included in the plans for varnish 2.0?

No.

Our thinking on ICP in general is that a two-layer setup is a better
use of HW-resources.

It would be interesting to know a little more about how to configure Varnish in a two-layer setup. I guess this would be of interest to others deploying varnish as well.

Would such a two-layer setup be comparable to a squid cache hierarchy in surrogate mode?

For instance, if you had four servers with equal hardware resources to use as Varnish caches, how should these be optimally configured?

- A two-layer setup would mean a hierarchy with two siblings in two layers.
- An one layer setup would mean four siblings in one layer.

If I understand this correctly, the two-layer setup would have a lower mean time before failure, but a higher cache hit ratio, than the one layer setup.
