Good catch. But the document also does not specify what a team is an
what the rights of team members are. I don't think it is really
necessary to specify that a team can make someone a member of the
team.

IMHO no as the timer only starts after you change roles. That means if
you get demoted to contributor you will stay contributor at least for
one additional year.

I think we definetly need a better description as your interpretation is also
valid.
