[Zope-dev] un-own an object

[Tim McLaughlin]

you can always do a copy and delete to take ownership... (albeit that may
cause other probs...)

my problem is that I need to be able to construct a zclass built by a user
who no longer exists.  My suspicion is that "nobody" does not have those
privileges, and so it seems that I may be SOL  :-(

This isn't very useful though ;-)

I ended up re-creating a whole folder tree just because I wanted to delete
the
user who created them, and Zope 2.2.4 doesn't appear to have a 'Take
Ownership'
button :-(

*grumbling*
