Resolved:
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.
