[opencms-dev] Merge new database into existing one

[Pomegranate Software- Arash Kaffamanesh]

Hi Ronen,

what do you mean with base version? a major new release of OpenCms, for 
instance the upcoming OpenCms 7.5 / 8.x in future which shall be 
migrated to it from 7.0.5?
In this case you can easily export the existing data from the previous 
version and import it to the new instance of the latest version and it 
works even if the templates or data structure changes.

Best,
Arash
