Freezes and NEW are mostly unrelated.

No

Packages that don't make it into unstable before the freeze won't make
it into wheezy, but that doesn't mean they are "passed over", they
just have to wait for the next release or for wheezy-backports to be
open.

The release team usually makes their statements on d-d-a, not
-mentors. Their latest mail states that the freeze is "due in June",
sounds imminent to me :)
