15       You must own the schema to use ALTER SCHEMA. To rename a schema you
16       must also have the CREATE privilege for the database. To alter the
17       owner, you must also be a direct or indirect member of the new owning
18       role, and you must have the CREATE privilege for the database. (Note
19       that superusers have all these privileges automatically.)
