Here is what the "notes:" section of
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/interactive/sql-alterview.html
says:

Notes
Some variants of ALTER TABLE can be used with views as well; for
example, to rename a view it is also possible to use ALTER TABLE
RENAME. To change the schema or owner of a view, you currently must
use ALTER TABLE.

So you would simple use the ALTER TABLE statement to perform this operation.
