Skyrim and the whole Elder Scrolls series provides a near-infinite potential for modding. Some fan projects ? such as Tamriel Rebuilt (https://www.destructoid.com/huge-morrowind-fan-project-tamriel-rebuilt-gets-even-more-content/) ? expand on the original games and lore, and one other monstrous endeavor has been making great progress.
In the most recent developer video diary, the Skyrim Rebuilt team has shown off the work that's so far been carried out in expanding Cyrodiil, the region where Oblivion takes place. Over the course of 35 minutes, we get to see exactly what's been implemented and what's left to do.

For example: the city of Skingrad has had nearly all 33 interiors finalized and all 86 NPCs and 108 scenes have been completed, with focus now shifting to finishing quests. It's quite astounding the work that's been put in by the team, yet there's still lots to be done.
What is Skyrim Rebuilt?
It should be noted that this massive project is not a recreation of Oblivion inside Skyrim's engine. Instead, Skyrim Rebuilt will encompass a complete expansion of the continent of Tamriel which will allow you to travel to regions from the other TES games. Cyrodiil is just one of the many provinces that's being worked on.
This means that The Elder Scrolls 4's story will not be present as the region is part of Skyrim's lore and history (i.e. 200 years after Oblivion). This also means there are numerous changes, with the most notable one being the complete recreation of Kvatch, the settlement that's been destroyed in TES4.
As for when it will be released, the team is unable to give an answer. You can already download the city of Bruma (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/10917?tab=description) if you want to get a taste of what's been worked on, but as you can imagine, a project like this is going to take a long time to complete. And it's been in development since 2012. The team is interested in volunteers (https://beyondskyrim.org/join) if you have the skills to help out.
