When several people are working on the same site, what is the current approach in preventing two people modifying the same object?
Lock the object in a version so that the user who is not currently logged into the version gets an error when they try to modify the object.

I have seen the buzzword WebDAV here and there. I have visited the http://www.webdav.org/ site, but I am still clueless as what it is. It WebDAV still under intense development?
Yep.
Does Zope support WebDAV now?
Yep.
Is WebDAV just a protocol extension to HTTP,
Yep.
so people are still talking to each other on how to shape up this protocol?
Yep.
For developers and content managers, what software do we need to install to use WebDAV?
Just Zope, and a good client (I don't know of any off hand).
When the Zope people talk about a "Zope WebDAV Test Server", are they referring to
(1) A downloadable software package, or
No.
(2) A physical server machine, much like a website where you can create accounts for people so they can help to develop the eventual server software?
Yep. http://webdav.zope.org/ -Michel
