Spring is a community that is very focused around higher level application patterns. You see transactions, workflow, MVC and so on in their higher layers. OSGi is a lot about infrastructure and under the hood piping to make the applications robust, dynamic and interoperable across platform implementations. The overlap between Spring and OSGi is relatively small (in percentage), hence converging Spring's lower layers with OSGi's Declarative Services, makes quite a competent combo.
