Since some preparation work had already been done, the only source changes left were changing empty-element tags like <xref linkend="foo"> to <xref linkend="foo"/>, and changing the DOCTYPE. The source files are still named *.sgml, but they are actually XML files now. Renaming could be considered later. In the build system, the intermediate step to convert from SGML to XML is removed. Everything is build straight from the source files again. The OpenSP (or the old SP) package is no longer needed. The documentation toolchain instructions are updated and are much simpler now.

The owner of a foreign server can alter user mappings for that
|

server for any user. Also, a user can alter a user mapping for
|
|
their own user name if <literal>USAGE</literal> privilege on the server has
|
|
been granted to the user.

Change options for the user mapping. The new options override

|
any previously specified
|
|
options. <literal>ADD</literal>, <literal>SET</literal>, and <literal>DROP</literal>
|
|
specify the action to be performed. <literal>ADD</literal> is assumed
|
|
if no operation is explicitly specified. Option names must be
|
|
unique; options are also validated by the server's foreign-data
|
|
wrapper.

<title>Compatibility</title>

|
|
|
<para>
|
|
<command>ALTER USER MAPPING</command> conforms to ISO/IEC 9075-9
|
|
(SQL/MED). There is a subtle syntax issue: The standard omits
|
|
the <literal>FOR</literal> key word. Since both <literal>CREATE
|
|
USER MAPPING</literal> and <literal>DROP USER MAPPING</literal> use
|
|
<literal>FOR</literal> in analogous positions, and IBM DB2 (being
|
|
the other major SQL/MED implementation) also requires it
|
|
for <literal>ALTER USER MAPPING</literal>, PostgreSQL diverges from
|
|
the standard here in the interest of consistency and
|
|
interoperability.
