Sometimes the Software Freedom Law Center, sometimes the Software Freedom Conservancy. The Conservancy does license enforcement for its member projects upon request.
The lawyers are on staff at those organizations, but I'm not familiar with the details of how their funding works. They are both non-profits, though, so if you're curious you can pull their Form 990s.
I don't know what the monetary damages were. I was never purview to those conversations (as I said, I was only handling the technical side of things). I heard through the grape vine that some of them requested damages as well as compliance, but I don't know for sure.
