Nova Del 2013: reached a plateau, no fading

   The most recent AAVSO data indicate that the nova stopped
fading (or even slightly brightened), and currently stays
slightly above mag 5.0.  This behavior is consistent with
Fujii-san's spectrum, which showed features of a premaximum nova.
This nova is not a very fast nova as reported in ATEL 5297
(Munari et al.).
