4.7 is in feature freeze with a very low critical bug count at last report.  
My own guess is an RC release will be next, so I'd say it's about as eminent 
as it can reasonably be.  Of course, there's no date. :-)  Contrib modules 
are currently a crap shoot, in my experience.  (I'm also working on a 4.7 
site.)

And yes, helping to update contrib modules is both a good learning experience 
and very helpful to boot!

"If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of 
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an idea, 
which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps it to 
himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into the possession 
of every one, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself of it."  -- Thomas
