HT Cas: superhumps update

   We have received new observations from Pavol A. Dubovsky, Enrique
de Miguel, Josch Hambsch (Tzec Mt.), Maehara-san and Crimean Astrophys.
Obs. team (Alex Baklanov, Elena Pavlenko).  The superhumps are now
situated between eclipses, after a conjunction with eclipses
(cf. 12375).  We have been able to determine times of superhump maxima
well outside the eclipses and found a virtually zero Pdot (-1.4(2.0)*10^(-5)).
The mean superhump period for these humps has been 0.07627(1) d
(3.6% longer than Porb).
