If SoftMaker only supplies binaries, they probably won't bother with OpenBSD because with every release of OpenBSD, there has been a compatibility break, and applications that work on OpenBSD 5.9 will not work on OpenBSD 6.0. OpenBSD is fine for open-source software where you can just recompile the binaries for the new OpenBSD release, is no good for binary-only software.
