问题:

I'm receiving this error when trying to change file ownership from Google Apps Script (Google Apps for Education):

GDataServiceExceptionYou can't yet change the owner of this item. (We're working on it.)

The same code works on a Google Apps for Business domain. Is there a limitation for EDU domains?

Ok, found the answer in the Google Drive support pages:

Only Google Apps customers in Premier and Government domains can transfer ownership of a synced or uploaded file (such as a PDF or image file). If you're using Google Drive and Google Docs with a personal account or with a Google Apps for Education account, you can't transfer ownership of a synced or uploaded file.

Does anyone know why this limitation exists for Education accounts? Is Google really working on it (as mentioned in the error message)?
