I’m using it for a side project which has been running for over a year. It’s not something to which I can devote much time and Meteor is easy to set up for what I need.

I suppose that if it dies I can re-write the application using some other framework (I’ve done Android/Java and iOS/RubyMotion versions), though it would be a bit of a pain. For now, with no new features planned, I can keep it running as long as the Meteor bug and security fixes keep coming.

Technically you can run it indefinitely. Meteor is open source and the Meteor team has been actively working with community members to do PRs and what not. There are enough people on it that the ball (to some extent) would be picked up by community folks. Perhaps not a bad thing, either, as it could breathe some new life into it.
Thanks, useful to know.
