AQ CMi superoutburst

   Greg Bolt has also confirmed the presence of superhumps in AQ CMi.
The current outburst is indeed an awaited superoutburst.
The superhump period based on this single-night observation is
0.068(1) d, which is slightly longer than the period reported in 1996
(not yet well documented, cf.)
http://www.kusastro.kyoto-u.ac.jp/vsnet/DNe/aqcmi.html

   Continued observations are awaited to pin down the period and its
variation.
