Hi Roland,
My speculation is that the relative weight of each face normal considered at a vertex V should be proportional to the angle of the triangle at V. So....
For the smoothing of vertex B (which is a blend of the normals of ABC, SPAM CONTENT, and BED) we would give ABC and SPAM CONTENT a weight of "45" each, and a weight of BED "90" - that is, BED's normal acts as much as ABC and SPAM CONTENT's combined.
cheers
Ben
