   FS Aur (unusual CV below the period gap) is undergoing a
relatively bright outburst.  Although this level of brightness
had been reported in the past (eg. 2000 March), the persistence
of the outburst for two nights would make it a tempting target.
No definite superoutburst has been recorded ever since.
