So the reps/SEs/Techs that I have spoken with are saying they are going to keep them separate. In my case I am tw customer and was worried about their network when L3 took them over. I was even more worried when Centurylink then took over L3 that I was going to lose one of the networks. However I gotten assurances from everyone there that they are going to maintain all 3 networks as separate for the foreseeable future.

We are looking at a IP Transit deal involving one or both networks and while I'd love to have transit routes from both, I don't want to design to be shot in the foot later on either if they are talking about soon-to-be integrated or something.
