Assuming you are referring to the second of my suggestions (linking
across headlines).  If so, I am not sure about org-depend as I have
never used it.  Does it allow linking across headlines or only within a
sub-tree?  In any case, it would be nice if the start time would be
dependent on the end time of the "from" link, but only if a start time
were not specified explicitly?

thanks,
