 * Hey [@sminozzi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sminozzi/)
 * There is no easy way to do that at the moment as the postmeta table is used in
   2.X versions to store quite a few important details regarding Downloads/Sales/
   Logs.
 * The best thing is to update to 3.X version, run the upgrade routine and after
   checking that everything looks correct you can remove the legacy data.
