..and now they are. So please don't post anything that you consider
private.

Also if you don't mind your posts from the old archive being
imported to the public one, please do let me know.
Cheers,

No. do-release-upgrade _is_ the upgrade tool that you should use
instead of apt-get/aptitude dist-upgrade.
However rather than take the advice of others, I'd recommend you
consult the official documentation first.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades - Upgrading 7.10 to 8.04

No. There's no need to edit the apt sources or run the dist-upgrade, it
does all those things for you.
Thanks,
