Dear SN watchers,

In [vsnet-campaign-sn 447];
># The host galaxy of SN 2002ds is an inclined barred-spiral (SBd pec
># sp) galaxy ESO 581-G25, somewhat affected by the Galactic
># extinction.  The position of SN is R.A. = 15h13m35s.73, Decl. =
># -20o40'38".5 (2000.0), which is about 68" east and 7" south of the
># nucleus (it has complex structure) of ESO 581-G25.  It is located at
># well outside of the main disk.  There are several foreground stars
># around this galaxy, including a bright (mag 15:) star superimposed
># on the western disk.  The expected maximum for typical SN Ia is mag
># about 14.5.  

The spectrum of SN 2002ds was taken at Las Campanas on June 28.0, from
which the UCB team revealed that it is of young type-II event (IAUC
7829).
