It's a *loose* commitment to fix the bug by that particular build. It may
get pushed out for all sorts of reasons -- it's harder to fix than
originally thought, other things have gotten priority, the engineer got
bored with it, etc. Given that it's currently marked Fix in Progress, the
chances it'll actually make 113 are higher than if it were in a "lower"
state.
As for "three weeks", the build schedule can be found at
http://opensolaris.org/os/community/on/schedule/
The first date is when ON stops taking changes that will go into that build
(modulo nasty bugs that turn up in testing the following week), and the
second date is when the internal release engineering groups starts putting
the consolidations together to form the DVD image.
Once *that* happens, they smoke test for a couple of days, and generally
it's released Wednesday afternoon after a Monday build date. But it always
takes a little extra time before it gets released externally. I'm not sure
what the time lag is these days. It appears to be a week or less at the
moment.
The equivalently-numbered OpenSolaris build is generally available ten days
to two weeks after the WOS delivery date, so build 110 should be available
early next week.
Builds are usually spaced by two weeks, so 113 should be available
approximately six weeks from now.
