Thread: database permissions (7.3) comment
I was reading the quote below and misunderstood it to be referring to the initial privileges (i.e. SELECT, INSERT, etc.) granted to the creater of a table rather than to the ones that only the owner can use (DROP, ALTER, GRANT, REVOKE, and others?). The section on the GRANT command makes things clear. I am not sure other people would make the same mistake. However, it might be helpful to list the commands covered by "special privileges" in parenthesis. From the database permissions documentation (7.3): The special privileges of the table owner are always implicit and cannot be granted or revoked.

Okay, I've changed it to try to clarify. regards, tom lane
