The proof is that they said the premiere, mid-season break, and season finale, would be the long episodes. Based on that we are mid-season now, which means sixteen episodes is one season and thus one volume.

Actually, if you go back and watch the Preshow Livestream, right around 17 minutes in, they discuss the release schedule. I'm paraphrasing here to take out a lot of 'ums' and 'ahs', but they state that, "There are ten chapters to RWBY Volume One.  We will be releasing them as sixteen episodes of varying length because of reasons." About thirty seconds later they add, "Volume One does not mean Season One.  We will be taking a break after Volume One to do cool shit."

The takeaway is that we will get another 8 weeks of releases, then a break, then they start in with Volume Two as the second half of Season One.
