No need to be a DD to provide a patch to the document. Just write the issue 
down as well as the steps that need to be taken to solve it and submit it 
to the debian-doc mailing list. If you go all the way and take the release 
note SGML sources and provide a patch (diff -u prefered) with the changes 
included then that would be best.

If you think that's too much maybe you would like to detail the steps you 
took to fix this issue, more specifically: 

- which databases did you had in db2 format?
- what did you do to convert these databases?
- how did you verify that the database integrity was preserved in the 
upgrade?

The Release team would be grateful if you submitted this (if you haven't 
done it already) to the upgrade-reports virtual package in the BTS as a bug 
report.

Thanks

Javier
