Soft TODO:

• Database to store chat logs
• Aggiungere stato del traffico (https://bitbucket.org/agenziamobilita/muoversi-a-roma/wiki/tempi.TempiTratta)
• Add testing

Long TODO:

• Aggiungere possibilità di cercare percorso
• Add favorite stops.

Very long todo:

• Add a tutorial: message shown only the first time the users chat with the bot.

VERY VERY VERY Long todo:

• Groups support

Abandoned:

• NLP interface: Using api.ai. I think it's easier to use the telegram's commands for this use case.
