You'll need to follow the parts of faq/current.html up to the 5.8-release cutoff point (indicated in comments in html source), and will also need to build xenocara and packages yourself. I wouldn't recommend it. The clean way is to install 5.7 now, then do an upgrade installation to 5.8 release when available.
