Hi Tom,
Thank you very much for the quick response. That was very helpful. I
was able to find the privilege on pg_language, pg_database and
pg_tablespace. I am looking for privileges granted to SCHEMA and
SEQUENCE. Do you by any change know what view or table I can queries to
get privileges granted on these two?
Also when I did a select datacl from pg_database. The privilege column
look like this. Do you know if there are some system function to decode
this column? Or do I have to write code to interpret this myself?
"{=CTc/postgres,postgres=CTc/postgres,louis3=CTc/postgres,qa_test=C*/pos
tgres,louis_role=C*/postgres}"
Again, thank you very much.
Louis Lam.

It's stored in the various "acl" columns of the system catalogs, which
you can look at either directly or via psql's \d commands. See the
GRANT reference page for an example and a discussion of how to read
the entries.
