> I know WP is under GPL2 license, I have read the document but still

> Case:
>
> 1. I design a customized WP theme, and bundle WP core, with a few
> extra plugins, sell to customers
> 2. Some client just need basic theme, so I bundle WP GPL theme,
> instead of a customer theme, and sell to customer
> 3. I optionally provide installation service, but not all customer need it

> Is the above case violating the license?
