A very poor answer: Linux and the BSDs for example often ship their own
copies: we don't provide binaries for those platforms on our website.

Sadly it was not economically viable.  I seem to recall that last year
we only just managed to break even (given stall prices and travel
expenses), as well as the fact that we had basically nothing new to show
for RISC OS users beyond core improvements, all of which everybody who
uses NetSurf on RISC OS already knew about via this list and release
announcements.
