[Gllug] GPL

[Leigh Mason]

Having read the GNU GPL I'm a little unclear as who retains the intellectual
property rights of a particular work? As I understand it, the original
author can copyright their work by providing a copyright notice. If a
recipient of that work decides to change it in any way, are they then the
copyright holder for that version? Or are all intellectual property rights
completely removed?

Would anyone be kind enough to explain.
Many thanks,

Leigh
