There is no document ownership concept in Mayan because "sharing" a document can mean a lot of things. So to share a document, give another user enough permissions to see or edit a document. The "Creator" access control is only effective when the document is created, so in essence "Creator" is an alias of the user that creates the document only during document creation, after that there is no "Creator" alias anymore and you have to specify the actual username of the user receiving the document permissions using the ACL tab in the document you want to share.
