I assume the day is approaching when the packages in the COPR
repositories will be changed; isc/bind-esv will have 9.18 (instead of
9.16), and ics/bind will have 9.20
So that we might start weaving this into our maintenance plans, is there
a projected date on which this will happen?

The BIND 9.16 release branch is approaching EOL as of April, 2024. We
encourage users running 9.16 or (gasp) 9.11, to upgrade to 9.18.
The 9.18 branch has consistently out-performed the 9.16 branch, and we
are confident that it is more stable than 9.16. One of our support
engineers has prepared a helpful knowledgebase article on updating
from 9.16 to 9.18
(https://kb.isc.org/docs/changes-to-be-aware-of-when-moving-from-bind-916-to-918
<https://kb.isc.org/docs/changes-to-be-aware-of-when-moving-from-bind-916-to-918>)
which may be useful to you as you plan your migration.
For an overview of our release plan, we maintain another knowledgebase
article (https://kb.isc.org/docs/aa-00896
<https://kb.isc.org/docs/aa-00896>).
This was updated earlier this month, to move the start of future new
stable branches from Q1 to Q2. The problem with starting a new stable
branch in Q1 is, after the long holiday quiet period, we always have a
number of important fixes and changes we need to release *before* we
can start a new stable branch. We are currently projecting that our
next stable branch, BIND 9.20, will be released in Q2.
For your convenience, we also maintain our planned EOL dates listed
next to each software release on https://www.isc.org/download/
