+Sling Servlet Archetype
+
+Maven archetype for Sling Launchpad Standalone applications.
+
+Getting Started
+===============
+
+This component uses a Maven 2 (http://maven.apache.org/) build
+environment. It requires a Java 5 JDK (or higher) and Maven (http://maven.apache.org/)
+2.0.7 or later. We recommend to use the latest Maven version.
+
+If you have Maven 2 installed, you can install the jar into your local Maven repository
+using the following command:
+
+    mvn install
+
+See the Maven 2 documentation for other build features.
+
+The latest source code for this component is available in the
+Subversion (http://subversion.tigris.org/) source repository of
+the Apache Software Foundation. If you have Subversion installed,
+you can checkout the latest source using the following command:
+
+    svn checkout http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/sling/trunk/tooling/maven/archetypes/launchpad-standalone
+
+See the Subversion documentation for other source control features.
