Hi jrochate, thanks for asking!
I'm planning on incorporating the API into Access Policy 2.0 after 10.3 is released.
The Access Policy API actually addresses only one of the issues that the Access Policy module has solved. So integrating the API will be more akin to a refinement of one of its subsystems rather than a replacement for the entire module. For example, the Access Policy API doesn't have any opinion about how or where to store access information, the Access Policy module on the other hand follows the Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) paradigm where it uses Drupal fields for handling access.
As far as integration goes this will likely be an internal system so it will be integrated behind-the-scenes. Users of the Access Policy module may not even notice a difference between 1.0 and 2.0. Except for perhaps less clutter on the permissions page.
I talk briefly about the differences between the API and Access Policy if you're interested to learn more :D
