01:00 GMT: AFP reporter Bill Savadove in Shanghai says state-controlled media are pulling out all the stops with blanket coverage. State radio is beaming the opening ceremony live to the corners of the globe in no less than 10 languages: Chinese, English, French, German, Spanish, Russian, Japanese, Arabic, Mongolian and Korean. State broadcaster China Central Television was showing the "View from Africa" on the party congress, and the opening of the meeting is on the front pages of all the newspapers this morning.
