[Zope-CMF] Transfer ownership?

Hi,

How do I change the ownership of an object? I need to create some
"starter" content for some existing intranet users, but I want the user
to own the object, not me when I create it. In other words, I need to
create an object on behalf of an existing Member, and not own that
object myself.

For example, I'd like to create a document containing a structured text
outline for an existing user to edit and maintain. That user should own
the object. As a site manager  I'd like to be able to transfer ownership
from myself to another user. This won't happen often enough to make it a
default action when a new member joins.

Or perhaps a Member leaves the community and I need to transfer
ownership of objects (docs and such) to another Member to maintain using
the "owner" role. If it's not possible through-the-web (security
issues), does anyone have a how-to or working script I could look at?

Thanks,
Mark
