<p>I think that the "Typeset by the bidi package" message is much
too modest. It should read something along the lines "Typeset by
the bidi package developed by Vafa Khalighi for over 12 years
without any funding or donations." In fact I think that every
class/package used in a document should typeset similar wording
about itself and its provenance on the top of the first page of
any (All)TeX document. Many classes and packages have been
developed over many more than 12 years, particularly TeX and
LaTeX.<br>

<div>but to be honest I think that this is a really bad default,
and polyglossia probably should disable this while loading
bidi rather than rely on the user to find an undocumented
option in an internally loaded package.</div>

</span>After loading the polyglossia package (but before
selecting a language<br>
that reads right-to-left) try adding<br>
<br>
\usepackage[logo=off]{bidi}<br>
<br>
Strangely the default is logo=on and the option is not
documented.<br>
