The initial ideas, perhaps... but since my name has been mentioned 
(albeit with the kindest of intentions on Ed's part) I have to say that 
"22m and 22m" was a surprise to me too.

I had originally suggested 15m maximum height, partly to equalise CW NFD 
with SSB NFD and the German rules (both of which already allow 15m) and 
partly to open up possibilities for more efficient low-band verticals 
for those who wish to experiment. Along with that was a suggested total 
support allowance of 30m.
