Dear SN watchers,

The CfA team (IAUC 7774) and the Asiago team (IAUC 7776) took a
spectrum of this object, which revealed that it is of type Ia a few
days after maximum on Dec. 13. No magnitude estimates have been
reported other than the discovery and confirmation, so the additional
magnitude estimate for this brighter object than the expected value is
strongly urged.
