Contention

What is a contention set?

A contention set groups Applications that ICANN has identified as competing with one another. A set with 13 Applications means 13 Applications are in that competition group; those Applications may represent fewer than 13 distinct Applicants. These are official initial memberships and may change as the program progresses — not a prediction of final outcome.
