Comment:
Atom (RFC 4287) further specifies that &quot;The image SHOULD have an aspect ratio of one (horizontal) to one    (vertical) and SHOULD be suitable for presentation at a small size&quot;. Consider doing the same here.

    <thetext>Why? Not all platforms use square icons (I seem to recall that iPhone icons are something like 57x60, for example). We have the sizes=&quot;&quot; attribute for control over this, so that all platforms can be handled.</thetext>

    <thetext>It&apos;s easier to convert a square to an almost square rectangle (eg 57x60) than to convert a rectangular logo to a square. Giving users the ability to advertise both should ultimately result in a higher quality and better fit for purpose.
