1RXS J023238.8-371812: gradual brightening continues
The object keeps a gradual brightening last week.

It is well known that rebrightening events are sometimes
observed after main superoutbursts in WZ Sge stars.
The current rebrightening of J0232 is , however, quite
atypical in terms of the brightening time-scales.
In ordinary rebrightening events, the rising time-scale
is only ~1 day. The slow brightening time-scale of
J0232 implies a different nature from those ordinary
rebrightenings.
Time-series observations are urged. At our site, it is
hard to take a long run for this southern object.
