According to our Jenkins job
https://builds.apache.org/job/sling-launchpad-builder-1.8/
the launchpad should work without issues.
A couple of additional questions:
- what Java version do you use for building and running Sling?
- what happens if you try to build the project with "-U", to force
updating the snapshots? The command would then be mvn -U clean verify

According to the "Getting and Building Sling" page [1] I just did "svn
co ...", "mvn clean install" (-DskipTests) and "java -jar ..." and
expected to be able to build and use Sling. But if we don't have a
Jenkins job that does the same a committer will probably more easily
overlook if he breaks the build for people who are trying out Sling. But
I guess you know that and I have the feeling that I miss something here.
I use Java 8. I didn't try -U but Julians changes fixed the problem for me.
