DV Sco superhump period

   Greg Bolt has kindly sent us DV Sco observations.  The aliasing
problem has been now solved and we have obtained a mean superhump
period of 0.09947(3) d.  The earlier reports of a different selection
of alias was probably caused by the evolution of period and secondary
hump maximum.  The new period is consistent with the 2004 determination.
Further nightly observations are encouraged to determine the variation
in the superhump period, which can greatly vary in such a long Psh
system (cf. MN Dra).
