What happens when two people open/work on the same .psdc document? Does the last to save overwrite the document or does photoshop not allow two of the same file to be open at the same time?  Thanks!

I would have thought it would be controlled by the operating system in use, rather than Photoshop.  I've never used Photoshop on a network, but things like MS Office files could only be opened as Read Only on the Windows network I used at my workplace.  You could, however, save a read only file with a different file name.

Depends on how Adobe implemented their cloud library  Software. I feel it is unlikely that Adobe implemented  a check out version,  and check in new version web library development systems that support versioning.   Team development would need to be coordinated by the team members. It would probably be best that team members only have Write access for assets they are responsible for where other members have read access only to these assets they are not responsible for. There would be a release process the would gather the latest assets  on the release schedule to Package all assets into a Product version  release the would need to be tested a verifyed  before it in made public..

The answer, as I found out, is that only one person can work on a .psdc document at a time.  If one person is working on it and another person tries to join, the second person will get a prompt that the file is in use.  Therefore, the second person cannot use the file at the same time as the first and visa versa.  Whoever opens the file first has the file's use.
