SDSS J090350.7+330036.1: stage transition
Most recent data from Enrique de Miguel Agustino indicate that a stage
B-C transition has occurred. The transition occurred on May 30, when
the superhunp period discotinuously decrased.
comment by de Miguel Agustino (start of the fading?)
Plotting all the data up to now, this object is seen
to display a slow fading rate of approximately 0.10-0.12
mag/day and have entered a plateau for the last 3 runs
with no appreciable change in the mean brightness
(this is supported by two additional runs provided
by another user in USA). A fast decay to quiescence is
expected to take place at any moment, but the object
may well remain in the plateau for some more days.
The superhump period is 0.06032 d, but still,
I won't give too much credit
to this until I do a consistent analysis.

A linear regression yields:
HJD(min) = 2455340.3822(3) + 0.0590745(29) * E
