Start one. Make a kosher group with strict guidelines and no tolerance. You'll have more than enough people in no time.

Whatsapp Document sharing going live
For now it's PDF only.
Version numbers are very random so it seems like a server side update + it's live on beta version.
Some people can receive but cannot send.

Shouldn't be so, how do you know it's WhatsApp that's causing the drain?
