List of other day's reports:

 

I'm currently attending Ethereum DEVCON2 http://ethereumfoundation.org/devcon/

A little preday round up. Lots of people started connecting and meeting and random places around Shanghai. A LOT of it was coordinated via the WeChat groups mentioned here https://www.reddit.com/r/ethereum/comments/538j98/devcon2_last_state_of_need_to_know_info_that/

Unfortunately both WeChat groups are now at capactity, so you'll need to get someone at Devcon to scan the QR code on your phone to add you as a friend, and then invite you to the group.

There was the main fork which met up at Hyatt and moved upstairs to the Hyatt's Vue bar. The drinks were a little pricey at standard "bar prices", but it had an outdoors jacuzzi on the rooftop! 20160918_191922.jpgThere were about 18 people

Then there was the Devcon classic fork, being run by the "French connection" which met up at the at a restautant in another part of Shanghai. They ended up getting very food at a stick restautant https://imgur.com/a/Hjzjq

The main purpose of preday was just everyone catching up, meeting new people. I knew no one coming into this, and met a bunch of new people. It is going to be a great conference
