 "Paul Vogel's editing privileges on Wikipedia are revoked for a period of
one year." which to me does not mean "renewed each time he tries to edit". 

The ban renewal is not specifically mentioned in the decision because it applies to all 
Arbcom decisions. If you attempt to evade an arbcom ban, it gets renewed, period. 
That's what the punishment for attempting to evade a ban is. If there were no punishment 
for attempting to evade an arbcom ban, then there  would be nothing to stop people from doing it. 
Effectively, it means that people who ignore the arbcom end up banning themselves indefinitely.
