SDSS J220553.98+115553.7: superhump period

   William L. Stein has reported further observations.  Combined with
Maehara-san's data, we have obtained a superhump period of 0.05779(9) d.
Although the baseline of the observations is not sufficiently long,
the period has a fractional superhump excess of only 0.5(2) %.
This is unusually small, and further intensive observations are
requested to refine this period.  If this small fractional superhump excess
is confirmed, this object might turn out to be an unusual CV!
