In user-manag.sgml, document precisely what privileges are conveyed by CREATEROLE. Make particular note of the fact that it allows changing passwords and granting access to high-privilege roles. Also remove the suggestion of using a user with CREATEROLE and CREATEDB instead of a superuser, as there is no real security advantage to this approach. Elsewhere in the documentation, adjust text that suggests that <literal>CREATEROLE</literal> only allows for role creation, and refer to the documentation in user-manag.sgml as appropriate. Patch by me, reviewed by Álvaro Herrera Discussion: http://postgr.es/m/CA+TgmoZBsPL8nPhvYecx7iGo5qpDRqa9k_AcaW1SbOjugAY1Ag@mail.gmail.com |

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions.
