You have me slightly confused with what is on that page, why on earth
would we want to disable the API during producing the final dumps for
CC-by-SA 2.0 distribution (not talking about a potential backup before
the transition here and not talking about actually seeding the database
with/clean tainted info) . On the one hand, I don't believe there is a
commitment to include every single edit to the last second that
potentially could be distributed under  CC-by-SA 2.0 in the last dumps,
and more specifically it doesn't actually make a difference to any
-user- of such a dump (since if the API is blocked, there are no such
edits anyway).
