nutshell version.

zope uses optimistic conflict resolution, no application level locking takes 
place, because all threads have their own object spaces. only on commits, is 
there some synchronization (deep within the zodb) to insure that there 
weren't conflicts, if so a conflict error is raised, and the request gets 
retried. applications can define their own conflict resolution, see the zodb 
wikis and zope developer's guide for more details.
