15880	manage.py: difficult to run in background (and crashes when input isn't a terminal)	dstndstn@…	nobody	"This is with Django 1.3, and seems to be different than previous releases.

When I try to run manage.py in the background   (python manage.py > django.log 2>&1 &)  the process stalls.

When I try to pipe /dev/null to stdin it crashes as shown below.

thanks!
