The scope of 3.7 and timeline for it have not yet been announced,
however I believe at WCSF, Matt announced a release around September.

The version in trunk (the mainline development) is currently 3.7-alpha
(as you can see in the footer, make/core is on "Version
3.7-alpha-24954"). This is updated from the development version roughly
once a day. Until 3.7 is nearing release candidate, the About page will
still show the information for 3.6.

In other words, 3.7-alpha is the development version at the moment, it
is nowhere near release stage, and the about screen is not accurate.
