ASASSN-17ni will show ordinary superhumps?

     Tamas Tordai, Pavol A. Dubovsky, Lew Cook, Crimean Astrophys. Obs. team
(O. Antonyuk and E. Pavlenko) and Itoh-san have reported further observations.
Although it is difficult to detect a reliable period of superhumps, the outburst
has lasted for about two weeks. Thus the outburst seems to be a superoutuburst,
and I guess that the object will show ordinary superhumps before long.
     Further observations are encouraged.
