Are you saying that you give a service manifest to another group, and they write the start and stop methods, and sometimes they change those methods without telling you, and then the service breaks because of an error in the methods? So you want to include in the manifest what version of the start and stop methods it has been tested with, so that if someone else tries to use a different version, it will fail right away, rather than later?
