Isn't is a better idea to have different people writing classes and then sharing those? You can use interfaces to make sure they are complying with the specs you establish for the project. Then just have one person compile the .fla. The people writing classes can compile their own .flas to test their classes, but the classes should be abstract enough that only the lead Flash person needs to compile the .fla importing the other classes the other developers wrote.
