Is it wise to use Yahoo! Pipes for anything crucial in your app? (considering they've turned search over to MS and have been the subject of acquisition rumors)

Has Yahoo! committed to keeping it running long term?

Good question. I use Pipes at the moment, it is very useful and an integral part of some of my apps. It would mess me up majorly if they changed this, 2 or 3 weeks work. Lets hope they give us plenty of warning.

Also, I find the docs for pipes rubbish, lots of references to old versions.
