Subject: [Boost-users] [thread] boost::thread automatically detached when thread terminates?

Is a boost::thread object automatically detached when a thread terminates?
I read in the Boost.Thread 1.44 documentation: "If the thread of execution
represented by the boost::thread object has already completed, or the
boost::thread object represents Not-a-Thread, then join() returns
immediately."
Is it really required to call join() or timed_join()? Or can I also call
joinable() which would return false then?
