Is it possible to make a converter?
If so, is anybody planning to make an effort about that? |

It's possible, but there's no converter for a this moment. You have to do it on your own using excel. I'm converting now database from 2003 ( for pcm 2008 ) to version compatible with pcm 2009 |

Impish made a converter for PCM08 or PCM07, but withdrew it.
I don't think that you can expect a converter to show up for PCM09 - but with that said, it's quite easy to convert the databases manually if you've some knowledge about DB making. |

Not being too experienced with making/editing DBs, but having the good will and time to play with that sort of stuff, how much time/nerves would it take for someone like me to edit my save game to work in pcm09?

You have only to adjust critical database elements from pcm 2008 like dyn_cyclists, dyn_teams etc. to pcm 2009 ( mostly deleting some columns in excel ) and then compile a new DB. It's quite easy, but needs some time... |

Is someone willing to write down all the dyn_whatever elements that have to be changed?  By looking at the number of them I guess it would take me ages to go through everything myself.. |

by using advanced editor you can look at all tables in the database. Most tables are empty or the same as pcm 2008. I think that most important tables, you have to check is dyn_cyclist, dyn_teams, sta_equipment, sta_tga. You just have to understand the system of database  |

You're missing something, vasyl. Deda said 'save game', not just a regular DB. |
