@Mike: I agree - the detour through the KB is a little confusing, and it
would be better if we could simply directly link visitors with the workshop
page. 

@Gaurav: Please make the hero image on igs.org <http://igs.org>  directly
link to http://igsworkshop2018.gnsswhu.cn/

@All: I have also created the shortened link - bit.ly/IGSworkshop2018
<http://bit.ly/IGSworkshop2018>  - for use in social media, etc. This links
directly to the Wuhan Workshop page.

@Jianghui: I agree with Mike¹s suggestion - some special note on the
homepage letting workshop participants know that the closest/recommended
hotel may only be booked through registration, and noting that the other
suggested hotels are alternatives and must be booked by the attendee
him/herself, will be helpful. Also, please make sure that ALL hotel
information - both the recommended and alternatives - may be found in one
place, so people are not confused.
