[Qgis-user] Several users working with one project file - warning

[Roland Berger]

Hi Nicole

An other idea is to use a version control system where you need to 
check-in and check-out the projects. https://www.perforce.com/ has this 
kind of feature.
But this would add another system to your infrastructure and as such it 
is not a light weight solution for you problem.

Best Roland
