They have turned off the validators to ensure users got credit, AND turned off the Transitioners to prevent replacement wus from being issued unnecessarily.

They've always been good about this. No reason to think they'd change now.

And note that this is all a grand experiment, including ourselves and our contributions!

Happy crunchin,
