[New-bugs-announce] [issue18751] A manager's server never joins its threads

[Antoine Pitrou]

New submission from Antoine Pitrou:

The Server class in multiprocessing.managers creates daemon threads and never joins them. This is in contrast with e.g. the Pool class, which creates daemon threads but uses util.Finalize to join them.

(not joining daemon threads may have adverse effects such as resource leaks or otherwise unexpected glitches)
