Hi, I am going to solve this issue through below process. 1. Implement `isAlive` for dummy thread 2. Updating docstrings to recommend use is_alive() instead of isAlive(). 3. Add a deprecation warning for both Thread.isAlive and _DummyThread.isAlive 4. Remove isAlive in future Python release (3.8 for the deprecation, 3.8+2 for removal). 5. Backporting the property down to 3.7 and 3.6 doesn't hurt, let's do it Is it okay?
