Zope objects have a method called owner_info used to get ownership info
in DTML for display. In Python you can use the getOwner method of the
object.

owner_info returns a dictionary like so:

{'userCanChangeOwnershipType': 1, 'id': 'cduncan', 'explicit': 1,
'path': 'acl_users'}

So, to print the owner of an object:

<dtml-with owner_info mapping><dtml-var id></dtml-with>

or=20

<dtml-var expr=3D"owner_info()['id']">

This doesn't work very well for DTML methods though...
