Background:
I (Tav) was asked by another Inkscape developer if it would be possible to invite Olof Bjarnason to the Inkscape hackfest with a sponsorship level of $500. Olaf has been participating on the Inkscape developer's mailing list since September 2015 and was active in helping Marc with adding additional node alignment options this year. He is not in the Inkscape authors file thus does not qualify for sponsorship under the current criteria (he has had a few patches accepted for lib2geom including one in 2015). As an enthusiastic relatively new Inkscape developer it seemed prudent to invite him to the hackfest.
I queried the board members through the mailing list, and after getting positive responses by four other members I invited Olof. This resolution is to formalize the decision.
Note, this resolution does not increase the budget for the hackfest nor does it open up invitations to any other person without board consent.
