CV ROTSE3 J015118.59-022300.1

   This is the new CV in question.  The object (likley an SU UMa star) was
most likely caught during its superoutburst.  Please monitor for the next
outburst!

  We report on the discovery of an outburst from a previously unknown high-
latitude CV we designate ROTSE3 J015118.59-022300.1. The object was first
detected on 2001 Oct 13.291 at m-ROTSE3=14.71+-0.06, after which it faded by
more than 2 magnitudes over 13 d. Spectral analysis confirms a Galactic
location, despite unusual properties that render classification difficult.
