   Kyoto team (Ohshima-san) recorded clear presence of superhumps
with an amplitude of 0.35 mag, which a characteristic profile,
at orbital phase ~0.6.  The mean period of the late-stage superhumps
up to now is 0.07595(3) d (the error in vsnet-alert 12395 appears
unrealistic and may have been a typo).
The eclipses were 1.7 mag deep.  The profile of the eclipse suggests
that the source of the superhump was located on the far side of the disk.
