I believe there's an error in the Explicit dependency section, where it 
says that depends_on is a property. In cfn DependsOn actually exists at 
the same level as Type, Properties, &c.

resources:
   client:
     type: My::Software::SomeClient
     properties:
       server: { get_resource: my_server }
       params:
         # params ...
     depends_on:
       - get_resource: server_process1
       - get_resource: server_process2

And conceptually this seems correct, because it applies to any kind of 
resource, whereas properties are defined per-resource-type.

Don't be fooled by our implementation:

It also doesn't support a list, but I think we can and should fix that 
in HOT.

cheers,
Zane.
