Is there a way to assign ownership to Metapedia data....

We have a BI4 environment setup with the latest Patch release of Data Services and Information Steward installed. My question is this: can you assign individual ownership to imported or custom metadata? Currently I only see the standard groups in the Data Steward dropdown: Metadata Management Administrator, Metadata Management Data Steward and Administrators. I do not see the granularity down to the individual. Do I need to modify the users rights and custom assign this role (outside of the group) or does this functionality not exist in this version release?

Please disregard - I figured it out. You need to go into the CMC and select the Metadata Management child under the Information Steward tree. Once there you have to select the Manage User Security function and then Add Principal. Once in the Add Principals dialog - select the individual you want to act as a Data Steward and then set their rights accordingly.
