The site mentioned in the appdb,
http://www2.cnam.fr/creem/
no longer exists.  The new site appears to be
http://www.ac-amiens.fr/pedagogie/maths/new/geoplan/index.htm
but the zip file there has CRC errors:
  inflating: GGAvecComplexes/Geoplan.dll   bad CRC 38192722  (should
be 44897414) ...
There seems to be a commercial version, too, with a demo
version which can be downloaded from
  http://crdp.ac-reims.fr/ressources/logiciels/default.htm
Annoyingly, you have to download two files there and unzip them,
a unified installer would be nicer.

Happily (or not, depending on your point of view), the demo reproduces
the problem.  I've filed a bug for this,
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11372

You can perhaps help by voting for that bug and encouraging
other teachers to vote for it.
