    New DN in Cam (OT_J055718+683226): superhump period revised
    
         Our observation and preliminary analysis are ongoing.
    We have updated our web page, now including multicolor superhumps
    simultaneously obtained with V and J bands.

    We revised the superhump period to be 0.0534(6) d
    using our tonight observation.
    While the object is not very bright, long time-series observations
    are definitely helpful to study the temporal evolution of superhumps
    of this shortest period system.
