Dear Sir,
We are interested to be a paid support provider for Koha. In this regards we want to know that:
a. Is this possible to charge price for enhanced customization and support rendering for Koha. (we found that it is under GPL; is there any issue for charging for customization, installation and provide support through the year). There is nothing to stop you. If by 'customization' you are contemplating software development, the community welcomes contributions to the Koha code. Be aware that changing the code without contributing

b. If it is possible, then please give us a guideline to how to become a paid support provider (vendor) for koha.
Find a client who has confidence in your knowledge of library practice, of Koha and its operating environment, who will agree to pay the fees you intend to charge and who will be confident of your long term viability as a support provider. Participate actively in the community at koha-community.org.
Looking for your kind response.
Regards
