Yes, I know it looks frightfully sodden...but it's not, it's the camera settings that make it appear that way. It also makes the moss appear to be a light reddish tan, when in fact it's actually a dark brown. I'd wrung out all the water possible (not even a drop more can be squeezed out of it) and if you put your hand down in it, your hand comes away dry. I've rooted countless of cuttings before (although not figs), and I know how fast and easily rot and mold can set in if the medium is even the slightest bit too damp. As soon as I uploaded the pics from the camera I knew someone would say it was waaaay too wet as that's how it certainly appears, and I was going to explain about the camera settings in the initial post...but in my excitement, I forgot. :)
Regarding overwintering, I'll be keeping them in the plant room for the winter, along with my citrus trees. It's cooler than the rest of the house and is equipped with plant lights on a timer as well as having large picture windows free from window coverings to allow for as much natural lighting as possible.
