Default Reset to defaults

Hi. I'm currently running a vB 3.6.8 forum which, since I started a couple of years ago, has been though several upgrades, modifications, add-ons, etc...

What I'm looking to do is wait for 3.7.0 to be released, then upgrade to it, but without keeping nothing except user, forum and post data.

The last upgrade I did meant that an add-on I no longer use got kept in the system somehow, and I can't find anyway to remove it. I also have a few other issues with minor things that I don't like too much.

So what I wanted to know was this, is there anyway that I can reset my forums settings, extra fields in the database, and anything else that years of mods and add-ons have caused, to go back to default settings, so I have a clean base to upgrade to 3.7.0 from?

I know this sounds like major hassle, and I'm no doubt sure it is... but thank you anyway

when 3.7 comes out am sure the impex system will be upgraded also so you can use impex to import posts/users/forums

Can ImpEx be used to import data from one vB to another then? I.e. I'd do a fresh install of 3.7.0, then follow the instructions to import from 3.6.8?
