From: Massimo Villata <villata@to.astro.it> BL Lac is moderately bright since the end of August: it could be in a pre-outburst phase. Please, monitor it (preferably R band) as intensively as possible and let me know on possible further brightening (my telescope is not working at the moment because of the robotization project). A new outburst would trigger a new campaign. Thanks, ciao, massimo
