    In 2000, Edu4 equipped the AFPA's computer rooms. In the process,
    the IT firm used a version of the VNC remote desktop software
    without providing the AFPA – as required by the GPL – with the
    source code on request. In addition, it turned out that Edu4 had
    removed copyright and licensing notes from VNC.

AFPA is awarded €8,000 plus legal fees.
