If you can't do different sandboxes for each developer, you won't be liking
concurrent source control systems. For shared resources, you need locking
version control (RCS or something).
Even with a shared "cvsdeveloper" account, you'd have issues with
overwrites.
I've been staring at this ugly fact for a while... if it's at all possible
to do the gruntwork required to create a sandbox for each developer, I'd
recommend going that route. Otherwise, I recommend a locking model.
