H. Cervantes and R.S. Hall write in Beanome: A Component Model for the OSGi Framework <http://www.humbertocervantes.net/papers/VIVIAN2002.pdf> that there are three types of dependencies in OSGi:

Bundle-to-package
Bundle-to-service
Service-to-service

I understand that the article was written in 2002 (prior to DS).

Bundle-to-package dependencies can (or have to) be expressed with Import-Package. Bundle-to-service dependencies can also be expressed through service components with DS.

But what about Service-to-service dependencies. Would it be correct to say that they are also covered by DS?

Greetings,
Michael
