The 8-speed Alfines are getting to be really popular for offroad and touring stuff. I made this gear ratio calculator for them, if you are interested. Just adjust the chainring and cog tooth counts and you'll see the 26" and 29" numbers for a normal setup. Then you can just play with the chainring and wheel size numbers for the rear.
Note that this presumes wheels have an exact diameter of 26" and 29". You'd just need to adjust things accordingly to get more proper development numbers.
