ASASSN-15jd: constant period

   Itoh-san, William Stein, Ian Miller and Roger Pickard
have reported new observations.  The object still shows
a constant superhump period of 0.06503(4) d.
If the present superhumps are stage A superhumps,
the long duration of stage A suggests a very likely
period bouncer.  If the present superhumps are already
stage B superhumps, this is probably the first case
of developing stage B superhumps (without a period
change) following a dip.
