Sure..

It depends on how much you charge.  If you charge $70 for a two year
registration and pay $20, you can afford to give an aggregate of about
20 minutes per support per customer.  If you sell it for $50 and pay
$20, you can afford about ten minutes per customer.

It's not that you have to offer support, it's that OpenSRS doesn't come
with any.  You send them $500.  You get some software.  You make it
work.  If it doesn't work you figure out why.

I'm glad you want to do that.  Frankly, I want to do it, too.
