I endorse your views. also want add little.

1. Whatsap is still not fully accessible as we use email through our desktop or laptops. 2. I don't stay always online and I don't want my mobile to play popup sound after each and every second. it create disturbance to my working environment. 3. as email is concerned, it is too easy to me to check accessindia mails from time to time while doing my office job.

Subject: [AI] Making of a WhatsApp group containing all the members of

Greetings All:



I am writing to express my concern regarding any effort made by current, past or future members of Access India to transform this group into another garden variety group by transitioning to the Whatsapp platform.



While it is always an excellent value proposition to scale up to new technologies, the rationale needs to be sound and cogent. Those members who have access to the Whatsapp platform also enjoy seamless access to email messaging on their cellphones.



Since email is fully accessible on hand held devices, transitioning to the Whatsapp platform makes little sense .



I will grant that Whatsapp is indeed a more fashionable way to conduct communication today. That said, Access India is not about fashion. It is about serving a noble cause where hundreds of members help each other with their daily challenges. A legacy system needs to be genuinely flawed for it to be abandoned. Moreover, how will those members who use regular phones that are not smartphones access the mailing list? Not everyone is entirely comfortable with Android and IOS technologies all else being equal.



Bottom line? I do not find any tangible reasons to discard the email protocol when it comes to the access India mailing list. Where this discussion goes and eventually terminates is entirely in the hands of the moderators. Nevertheless, I thought I would add my two cents worth while the subject is being debated.

Dear Axis Indians
Greetings hope that all is well
This is with reference to creating a WhatsApp group consisting of all the members of the access India mailing list Yes no doubt today emails and of great significance but after WhatsApp has come in I thought it would be better also to have a WhatsApp group in order
to enhance better communication standards
Please let me know as to how this idea works out and in my opinion there should be a WhatsApp group
With regards
