Hello, I was going to share my bookmark of Gunnlaugur Briem's notes on the design of eth and thorn with somebody, but found in the process that the site gives a 404 now:
https://sites.google.com/view/briem/type-design/thorn-and-eth
Does anybody know where to find this again? At least, there is a snapshot on the internet archive:
https://web.archive.org/web/20250116090557/https://sites.google.com/view/briem/type-design/thorn-and-eth
But I thought that the original might have moved to a new home I am not aware of. Does anybody know more? Thanks!
P.S. not sure about what category to put this question in. Advice welcome.

Briem’s notes are archived on the Fontlab website: https://help.fontlab.com/fontlab/8/tutorials/briem/
Hope you can find the notes on thorn and eth there!4 -
What I remember most from memory from the Atypi Iceland conference, was the idea that the curve of the lowercase /eth must be similar to the /parenright, and not the /six or /nine2
