I suggest to be clear on this matter when you send invitations to
people.  Otherwise it sounds like this expense has been already approved
and also it looks like the board really would like to have somebody
there without previous discussion.

Also, the invited person could assume the invitation comes from GNOME
Foundation, therefore, some reimbursement exceptions would be applied to
him or her (as described at https://live.gnome.org/Travel).
