Unfortunately, it looks like it's not open-source, their Github repo is only for bug reports: https://github.com/pipes-digital/pipes

A Yahoo pipes! clone really needs some open source love. Too bad the maintainer is more interested in making it a one man SaaS.
The video is interesting because I thought he was talking specifically to me about the http://2fb.me product. But anyway I think this is a reminder that even though API’s have gotten more restrictive that more creative ways of using them bubble to the surface. :)

I guess that's fair.
I want(ed) to run Pipes as an SaaS because I think that model would be highly advantageous to me, and that would be very advantageous for Pipes. But that with the predecessors history as background this approach is a critical concern is something I do understand. I will now try to have my cake and eat it too: https://github.com/pipes-digital/pipes contains a new FOSS version that is meant to exist in parallel with pipes.digital, as long as that model works out. So worst case now is this FOSS approach fails, and then only the SaaS would die, not the software.
