OT J120052.9-152620 = Catalina transient

   Catalina has detected this transient (=CSS110205:120053-152620).
This bright CV has numerous past outbursts, and ASAS-3 also recorded
many outbursts.  Apparently the brightest one in 2001 February looks
like a superoutburst (note that the present outburst is equally bright).
The object appears to be an overlooked bright CV with relatively frequent
outbursts.  Further observations are encouraged!
