I accept full blame for earlier proposing this flawed design which read
as "chikri" or "vikri", and had an incorrect matra for "wiki" in
Devnagari. I have worked with the designer to create revised versions
for all our purposes, from banners to icons to conference shwag.
I urge that we adopt these *across* all sites, conference as well as
registration, and on all other banners.
The registration page is still using the old logo (they should replace
it with the banner image above) and the header icon on the conference
page still has the old logo (should be replaced with the icon png above).
I'm not sure who's in-charge of the registration site and the header,
but am happy to work with them to provide graphics based on the revised
logo.
Best,
Shekhar
