Confused about 9.6.2-P1 and 9.6-ESV

I noticed that the patchfix releases of BIND came out today, so
congratulations on that. :)  However I was confused by the existence of
both a 9.6.2-P1 and a 9.6-ESV (with the same code inside). Is 9.6.2-P1
the last release on the 9.6 branch? For the purpose of "following" a
branch in the FreeBSD ports and base am I better off with one or the
other? The issue is trivial now since the code is the same, but are they
expected to diverge?

I understand the purpose of the -ESV branch, and I think it's great that
ISC is doing this. I would just like to make some plans and need some
guidance.


Thanks,

Doug
