Hey all,

We are running on 71. and have a couple issues I'm curious about from an
admin perspective:
a) I'm trying to understand if there is a way decouple Hive metadata
authorization (SHOW DATABASES, SHOW TABLES, etc) from the SELECT permission
grant. I'd like for users to be able do schema discovery without having
access to the underlying data but currently I'm finding no way to
accomplish this.

b) is there any good documentation that describes the practical difference
between an exclude and deny with respect to a resource based policy? We
haven't enabled deny via the config yet (it's one of our next tests) but I
have yet to see excludes work in the way expect and I'd assume someone has
documented this stuff well somewhere.

c) is there an exposed Swagger resource for a local Ranger server? I was
able to explore the apidocs via the official swagger documentation on the
wiki but have had no luck discovering a working spec via our current
running PoC server.

Thank you in advance for any help!
