I was also extremely annoyed at first to find I had to add all these 
dependencies "by hand".  After thinking about it for a couple of weeks I'm less 
annoyed.  Aries is the only osgi project I've worked with where people are 
actually trying to use osgi package and bundle versions carefully and correctly 
at the bundle level.  No releases have actually happened since the project has 
been set up to deal with  this, and I'm waiting to see if releasing bundles 
will be manageable with this setup.  However, what this means is that once a 
few releases have happened it will be very unlikely that maven dependencies 
will give you appropriate versions of the aries bundles you need..  You really 
need something more like an obr repository built from the maven repository to 
do provisioning.  While I've been a hard-core maven advocate for about 7 years 
now, I think it's dependency model, being similar to osgi require-bundle, is 
now pretty clearly broken, and even the maven  developers are wondering what to 
do. (see recent maven dev thread on <scope>peri</scope> where yesterday Stephen 
Connolly admitted osgi would solve the problems being discussed).
