You will probably need to write a script to migrate the data, mapping  
any different/missing users. You will also need migrate the VFS data  
too, since this is where the attachments are stored. There is a  
bare-bones CLI script in wicked/bin that outputs the page contents to  
XML but unfortunately nothing to import into a new install. Perhaps  
you can extend that script...
