> New gTLD Program: String Similarity Contention Sets
>
>
> 26 February 2013
> ICANN is publishing today the contention sets identified by the
> string similarity review for applications submitted as part of the
> New gTLD Program. Review the full list of contention sets here: PDF
> [162 KB], CSV [65 KB] or from the Applicants' Corner page on the
> new gTLD microsite.
>
> Overall statistics about Contention Sets
>
> 2 Non-Exact Match Contention Sets
> .hotels & .hoteis
> .unicorn & .unicom
> 230 Exact Match Contention Sets
> 754 Total Applications in contention
> The Current Application Status page on the new gTLD microsite will
> be updated to reflect these contention sets.
>
> The role of the String Similarity Panel is to assess whether a
> proposed gTLD string creates a probability of user confusion due to
> similarity with any reserved name, any existing TLD, any requested
> IDN ccTLD, or any new gTLD string applied for in the current
> application round.
>
> Per the Applicant Guidebook, a contention set is a group of two or
> more applications containing identical or visually similar applied-
> for gTLD strings. For more information on string contention
> procedures, please refer to Module 4 [PDF, 428 KB] of the Applicant
> Guidebook.
>
> As a reminder, the objection filing period is open until 13 March
> 2013. For more information refer to the Objection & Dispute
> Resolution page.
