I seem to remember competing proposals, and have forgotten everything about them; the cover letter also didn't have references to them or mention them in any way. As to the averaging and period, I personally prefer a PELT signal with the windows lined up, if that really is too short a window, then a PELT like signal with a natural multiple of the PELT period would make sense, such that the windows still line up nicely. Mixing different averaging methods and non-aligned windows just makes me uncomfortable.
