My opinion, and I think this is what we've been doing in Sling forever even if we didn't explicitly document it, is that if a bundle B depends on another *for its API* then the dependency should list the lowest possible version. This makes B easier to use in many contexts, as long as the right version of the API, or a later one, is provided. > ...Another aspect of option a) is: With which version of the dependency you > want to run the IT.... This is the "recommented implementation" aspect of the dependency, which is a different concern. For this I suggest using the latest version of the implementation, or at least the one that we recommend. -Bertrand
