Read what you wrote again. You have answered yourselves. 

You are confusing between assignment of copyright, and releasing of
modifications under the same terms.

When a contributor / modifier releases his modifications, he does not
give copyright in his modifications to you.

In fact, insisting on such assignment is NOT considered FOSS compatible.

Funny how people infriging commercial software licences are called
"pirates", while huge companies infriging the GPL are called "users"
