For example, here is a "New in version 3.4.4" method:

However, the latest release appears to be 3.4.3:

Is this normal, or did the 3.4.4 docs somehow get published early by
mistake?

The online x.y docs reflect the x.y branch in the repository. New features are not normally added in an x.y.z maintenance release, which is normally bugfixes only. However, asyncio is a new module in 3.4 and marked as 'provisional', which means subject to change during the 3.4 series of releases. Idle is also exceptional in getting uncategorized changes in maintenance releases, so each x.y.z release needs a copy of the Idle doc chapter that is both up-to-date and frozen as of x.y.z. Making this happen is still a work-in-progress.
