How exactly has the 80/20 principle being used appropriately

What is appropriate the remaining properties in the 1.0 version of 
hAudio occur  at least 70% of the time in the audio examples pages.

70% is  appropriate I think,  this is because too many of the discovered 
properties fell between 70% and 80% mark, there would be almost nothing 
left of haudio if had applied the 80/20 principle.

Quite the opposite I think the proposal is highly productive...

Scott this Is not an ISSUE, Its simply part of the final hAudio process, 
nothing more when exactly should I apply *some* principles to this 
process?, there haven't really been any yet haudio seems to keep growing 
every time someone wants to tack a new property to haudio, when does it 
end Scott Where do we say enough, right at the end when haudio is 
finally a Draft proposal?

No changes have been made yet we are just discussing the proposals here 
and now, then I wont have to tack more issues to haudio, like haudio is 
more like boiling the oceans than paving the cow paths..etc..etc.
