- eventually the version number;
- an image (whatever image) of a fox (although some might argue even this one as an unnecessary requirement).

>>Sincerely, I request to them that they excuse to me but I hope that you they can understand that for my it is not easy to express to me in another language well. My intention is not to deceive to me of anybody or to despise the effort of others, single I mean that I do not like the logo.
