IAUC 7732 informed that SN 2001en is of type Ia, and reached its
optical maximum around Oct. 10. The reported magnitude around maximum
is about 15.0, which is somewhat brighter than the typical SN Ia. The
measurement of the decline rate is urged for the determination whether
it is intrinsically bright SN Ia (slow decliner) or not.
