1165
+    Compass was first designed to be a cli app and then hacked into a web app.
1166
+    The codebase needs to be refactored such that the main processing code is
1167
+    separated from the display functions(probably into separate files) and made
1168
+    modular so that adding more features (<a
1169
+    href="https://trac.torproject.org/6612">#6612</a>) is easy. For example, the
1170
+    main processing logic could be in compass.py, whereas print_groups() and other
1171
+    display related functions could be part of a separate cli.py; web.py would also
1172
+    have to modified to make use of this new modular code. Bonus points for adding
1173
+    features to compass(<a href="https://trac.torproject.org/6619">#6619</a>, <a
