I have a question. First a little history. Right now, the people who know
better than I are fairly certain Postgres is not changing things on its own
and the developer is certain the CMS software is not doing schema changes. As
I understand it logging has been cranked up to test both those assumptions.
My question is, how are legitimate schema changes done? Just wondering if
there is a third party involved.
