Now the identity of the nova by Takamizawa and Yamamoto (issued as IAUC 7409) with CI Aql (nova 1917) is firmly established, please use the designation AQLCI (in the VSNET format) in reporting to vsnet-obs (use CI Aql in other situations). The rising trend seen in the Apr. 28 data in Japan may already reflect the orbital modulation. Please make frequent observations, and report your finding timely to VSNET. Regards, Taichi Kato Makoto Uemura and the VSNET collaboration team
