I've not seen a response to your enquiry on this list, so thought I 
would reply by saying that I think the link you refer to is for updating 
between versions of WebPA 1, and does not relate to WebPA 2.

When converting the code from WebPA 1 to WebPA 2 I did write a script to 
validate the existing WebPA 1 data (check for internal consistency as 
the database did not include any referential integrity constraints) and 
generated a set of SQL statements for copying data from the old 
structure to the new.  I am not aware of these being documented or 
released, but if you're interested I can try to dig out a copy on an 
"as-is" basis.  I suspect the view taken was that there was little value 
in transferring old data into the new system, so these scripts were not 
necessary.
