Abstract
A method, system, and computer program product for dynamic field-level access control in shared documents. The method comprises: providing a field in a shared document, wherein the field is not owned by a user and can be edited by any user; and assigning sole ownership of the field to a user who first edits the field, wherein the owner of the field controls access to the field using at least one access control list.

A method for dynamic field-level access control in a shared document, comprising:
- providing a field in the shared document, wherein the field is not owned by a user and can be edited by any user;
- and
- assigning sole ownership of the field to a user who first edits the field, wherein the owner of the field controls access to the field using at least one access control list.
A system for dynamic field-level access control in a shared document, comprising:
- a system for providing a field in the shared document, wherein the field is not owned by a user and can be edited by any user;
- and
- a system for assigning sole ownership of the field to a user who first edits the field, wherein the owner of the field controls access to the field using at least one access control list.
A program product stored on a recordable medium for dynamic field-level access control in a shared document, which when executed comprises:
- program code for providing a field in the shared document, wherein the field is not owned by a user and can be edited by any user;
- and
- program code for assigning sole ownership of the field to a user who first edits the field, wherein the owner of the field controls access to the field using at least one access control list.
A method for providing access control in a Wiki, comprising:
- a user inserting a virtual field comprising text into the Wiki using at least one delimiter;
- and
- assigning sole ownership of the virtual field to the user who inserted the virtual field into the Wiki, wherein the owner of the virtual field controls access to the virtual field using at least one access control list.
A system for providing access control in a Wiki, comprising:
- a system for allowing a user to insert a virtual field comprising text into the Wiki using at least one delimiter;
- and
- a system for assigning sole ownership of the virtual field to the user who inserted the virtual field into the Wiki, wherein the owner of the virtual field controls access to the virtual field using at least one access control list.
A program product stored on a recordable medium for providing access control in a Wiki, comprising:
- program code for allowing a user to insert a virtual field comprising text into the Wiki using at least one delimiter;
- and
- program code for assigning sole ownership of the virtual field to the user who inserted the virtual field into the Wiki, wherein the owner of the virtual field controls access to the virtual field using at least one access control list.
