[ale] Final Ubuntu 8.04 Alpha Release

[danlambert at bellsouth.net (Dan Lambert)]

Just updated my 8.04 Alpha box this afternoon, and I'm more and more
impressed with how well this new release is coming along. I've only
found a couple of small things that needed fixing so far, and when I
went to enter them in Launchpad, they were already reported.
