Anyone up for meeting up between the 8th-10th October in London?
I'm heading to the IPEXPO for a day, and would be up for shooting the shit about bitshares over a pint.

Edit:
There's also a docker meetup http://www.meetup.com/Docker-London/events/204409602/ on the 8th.

Ooops, forgot to update this thread for anyone keeping an eye on it to see how we got on. I am pleased to report that myself, aloha and trader where able to meetup on Sat 20th. I didn't end up recording anything in the end unfortunately though. It didn't seem appropriate, we were in a noisy bar and also because it was the first London BitShares meetup it was more speculating on our future as a (hopefully) growing group rather than any official announcements. I will probably be setting up a group for us on meetup.com some time in the future. However, the feeling among the three of us was that there was little point of doing this at the moment because we are still so small and also because whilst our understanding of BitShares is growing each day, we are not yet confident that we will be able to best represent BitShares in London to people outside the community until our knowledge grows a little more.

Myself and Aloha also went along to the Coinscrum meetup in London last Tuesday which is a meetup for people new to Bitcoin. We are starting to make ourselves known among the wider crypto community in London, specifically the organizers of these types of events. This is because, whilst we also have an interest in the wider crypto community ourselves, the people that attend and run these events are tomorrows BitShares fanboys and potential future members and even organizers of our London BitShares community too.

With this in mind, I'm heading to Vitalik's Ethereum Talk on Oct 3rd http://www.meetup.com/ethereum/events/201711162/  If anyone is in London and interested in coming along too, sign up quickly as there are only a few slots left. We can also make the after party an unofficial London BitShares meetup.  :D

Unfortunately no..I no longer live in the UK... I did my masters degree there, worked for 5 years and then i came back home, Greece, because I wanted to enjoy a life in the sun and the sea away from London's stress...

and what a great choice... I came back, financial crisis, Greece defaults on its debt, my job here is crap compared to what i was doing in London, bills are mounting and the sun and the sea don't feel that nice as they used to be...

What do we want to talk about?

Introductions, plans, speculation + pipe dreams.
