+What's new in Pylint 3.3.9?
+---------------------------
+Release date: 2025-10-05
+
+
+False Positives Fixed
+---------------------
+
+- Fix used-before-assignment for PEP 695 type aliases and parameters.
+
+  Closes #9815 (`#9815 <https://github.com/pylint-dev/pylint/issues/9815>`_)
+
+- No longer flag undeprecated functions in ``importlib.resources`` as deprecated.
+
+  Closes #10593 (`#10593 <https://github.com/pylint-dev/pylint/issues/10593>`_)
+
+
+
+Other Bug Fixes
+---------------
+
+- Fix false positive ``inconsistent-return-statements`` when using ``quit()`` or ``exit()`` functions.
+
+  Closes #10508 (`#10508 <https://github.com/pylint-dev/pylint/issues/10508>`_)
+
+- Fixed crash in 'unnecessary-list-index-lookup' when starting an enumeration using
+  minus the length of an iterable inside a dict comprehension when the len call was only
+  made in this dict comprehension, and not elsewhere. Also changed the approach,
+  to use inference in all cases but the simple ones, so we don't have to fix crashes
+  one by one for arbitrarily complex expressions in enumerate.
+
+  Closes #10510 (`#10510 <https://github.com/pylint-dev/pylint/issues/10510>`_)
+
+- Fix false positive ``undefined-variable`` (E0602) for for-loop variable shadowing patterns like ``for item in item:`` when the variable was previously defined.
+
+  Closes #10562 (`#10562 <https://github.com/pylint-dev/pylint/issues/10562>`_)
