======================================================================
* Class: 1 = primary target, 2 = secondary target, 3 = optional target
* Data: data request, 1 = VSNET core team, data will be received by
campaign report list. 2 = as above, in collaboration with
Hachisu-san.
(1) KK Tel: superoutburst. Fresh superhumps recorded by Tom Richards.
Please continue this excellent coverage (Psh = 0.087-0.088 d).
(2) RX Cha: possible superoutburst. Detection of superhumps is highly
desired. Circumpolar object.
(3) V803 Cen: definite superoutburst, now entered a new stage of
damping oscillation to a more stable(?) plateau phase.
The present variation very much resembles that of "oscillatory"
rebrightening stage of the 2001 superoutburst of WZ Sge (see abobe URL).

(4) IM Nor: eclipsing recurrent nova. Data requested by Hachisu-san.

(5) MV Lyr: short-term variations with time scales of 10-30 min are
dominant. QPOs with P about 10-11 min sometimes become prominent
Excellent coverage from different observers. No clear superhump
signal is recorded up to now. We may also receive V449 Lyr observations
in the same field (19 07 35.68 +43 59 53.0, J2000.0; the GCVS position
is incorrect). Although V449 Lyr is not particularly a campaign target,
the reported data will be forwarded to vsnet-ecl members for further
analysis.
(6) GO Com: rare superoutburst of the large-amplitude SU UMa-type.
Now in post-superoutburst stage (mag about 17). Will be dropped from
the list soon.

(7) V699 Oph: possible SU UMa star. Companion to a close non-variable star.
Mislabelled as "non-CV" in some literature. Rapid fading observed.
If no rebrightening occurs, this object will be dropped from the list
soon.
Please closely watch vsnet-alert and vsnet-outburst for other new
outbursts.

*** Notice ***
This list is "read-only", i.e. it is used only for announcement of
the target lists. Other information, as well as reports and discussions
on particular targets, should be directed to the appropriate VSNET campaign
sub-lists (e.g. vsnet-campaign-dn for dwarf novae).
Nightly time-series observations should be now directed to (rather than
private e-mails):
---------------------------------------------------
vsnet-campaign-report@ooruri.kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp
---------------------------------------------------
Reports sent to this address will be delivered to the VSNET campaign
local staffs, including Ishioka-san, Uemura-san and me, and are expected
to be more convenient than personal e-mails to separate addresses.
