Andy, I haven't used the SnappMX product, but I imagine that you can use one of the OpenSource implementations of the AMF gateway: AMFPHP (php), OpenAMF (Java), and I seem to recall seeing a .net version too once. There's a python alpha, and the format is somewhat documented by these OSS efforts, so you could rewrite in the language of your choice :) The quote you reference is probably just out of context.
My reason to not look at SnappMX (or Lazlo for that matter) is that every XML based implementation for a UI seems to be creating its own very different dialect. Not very good if you want to repurpose UI later. If someone wrote a SWF generator that used either XUL (Mozilla's dialect) or MXML, I'd be much happier. At least the XAMALON effort is using the M$ dialect, which will have a high uptake.
