   CRTS has detected the third recorded, and brightest, outburst
of this dwarf nova (originally CSS071115:044216-002334).

1101290010264151127 2011-01-29T05:13:27 2011-01-29T05:03:26 04 42 16.04 -00 23 33.9 16.75 16.68 16.68 16.68 http://nesssi.cacr.caltech.edu/catalina/20110129/1101290010264151127.html

   Since the present outburst is the brightest one, and the outburst
amplitude exceeds 5 mag, it would well be a superoutburst.
