Some comments:
The BV Cen eruption seems to have come to an end. It lasted
about three weeks. The maximum brightness was around 11.4,
which is not as bright as on new years eve 1995-1996 when it
reached 10.7 during its previous outburst.
BV Cen is classified as an irregular DN, so perhaps it will do some
more. I'll keep a telescope on it!
FN Sgr: this was my first observation of the season and the
brightest display of FN since I started to monitor it in Sep 95: my
previous observation was 11.3 on 31/10/96
