To answer my own questions (from the aforementioned Amaya site):

Amaya 11.4.4 is now released (18 January 2012).

It supports HTML 4.01, XHTML 1.0, XHTML Basic, XHTML 1.1, HTTP 1.1, MathML
2.0, many CSS 2 features, and SVG.

It now includes a SVG editor (for a subset of the language). You can
display and partially edit XML documents. It's an internationalized
application. It provides an advanced user interface with contextual menus,
a customizable set of menus and tools, predefined themes.

Distributions are available for Linux, Windows and now MacOS X PowerPC and
Intel.
