    Dear CBAers,
    
    Full message coming tomorrow.  But two major targets should be retired:
    HS1813+61 (too late in the season!) and EC2117-54 ("Ind"; great orbital
    signal but good upper limit on superhumps).  The best northern targets now
    are Cep1 (GD552) and HS 2331+39 (And) -- or LS Peg if you can't quite
    handle these somewhat tough targets (V~16.5).
    
    In the south, I vote for BW Scl - another tough one at 16.5.  Or LS Peg
    (only mildly northern at +14 deg), which is plenty bright and could really
    profit from the worldwide coverage.
