Schema public has default access to group public, which your new user
has access to...
richardh=# GRANT ALL ON SCHEMA public TO richardh;
GRANT
richardh=# SELECT * FROM pg_namespace ;
nspname | nspowner | nspacl
-------------+----------+-------------------
public | 1 | {=UC,richardh=UC}
...
richardh=# REVOKE ALL ON SCHEMA public FROM GROUP public;
REVOKE
richardh=# SELECT * FROM pg_namespace ;
nspname | nspowner | nspacl
-------------+----------+-----------------
public | 1 | {=,richardh=UC}
...
*DO* make sure that one user has explict access before revoking all on
public though.
