Hi All,
It's a good news to hear the release of MIFOS v1.1. While the release took a
great deal of the community's time, we had a reason to suspend the MIFOS Mobile
project at least to be focused on getting MIFOS v1.1 released before today the
expected date. As you are aware, the community was looking at further expansion
of the banking channels beyond teller for MIFOS and that brought about the
birth of MIFOS Mobile.
Various enthusiasts within the community have made so many suggestions that are
worth noting. Meanwhile, since MIFOS v1.1 has been released, I feel this a good
time to bring in MIFOS Mobile in anticipation of MIFOS 2.0. As informed
earlier, we have have developed some codes which we have tested with MIFOS with
respect to loan webservice and it worked well.
We are delighted to release this codes to the community for further
development.
Beyond this, its a vision to see MIFOS having it integrated with other banking
channels like EFTPOS, telephone banking and Internet banking to metamorphose
MIFOS Mobile to MIFOS Channel Manager, which will a common platform to add more
banking channels on MIFOS Platform.
To this extent, I will encourage the community members who are interested in
being part of this project to kindly join it. Remember, the success of this
project is a plus for MIFOS as we hope the MIFOS will become the de facto MIS
solution for the microfinance subsector.
Many thanks to Tom Meredith of P2P Cash for the efforts in driving the vision,
Saurabh of SunGard for providing all the support in making the test for the
webservice a reality, the mobile banking application development team here, Sam
Birney, Tim Wood, Adam Monsen, Edward Cable, Aliya Walji, Van Mittal-Henkle and
other folks in Grameen Technology Centre Aarti Sharma, Kazeem Durodoye and
Andres Pacheco and other community members who have watched and read the
discussions hoping to join the MIFOS Mobile team someday.
MIFOS Mobile ... extending the reach of MIFOS.
Thank you,
