Doesn’t seem to be any native way as existed with 1.6 - but could you do the migration into 1.6 and then upgrade to 2?
Only way I can think of.

Thanks Steven - that’s exactly what I am trying to avoid!

Hi, Simon -
Right now there is not a first-party data import. For the time being, you might consider looking up DataGrab to import your content.
