V2362 CYGNI
     U. Munari and A. Siviero, Istituto Nazionale di Astrofisica,
Padova Astronomical Observatory; A. Henden, AAVSO; and S. Dallaporta
and G. Cherini, ANS ("Asiago Novae and Symbiotic stars") Collaboration,
report that V2362 Cyg (= N Cyg 2006) has apparently concluded its
re-brightening phase (cf. CBET 739), which began in July, and has
turned toward a new decline (perhaps its final decline).  The peak in
the re-brightening was apparently reached around Nov. 30.2 UT, when the
nova showed B = 10.46, B-V = +0.48, V-I_c = +1.14, and R_c-I_c = +0.54.
The latest magnitude data for Dec. 5.7 give B = 10.63, B-V = +0.45,
V-I_c = +1.17, and R_c-I_c = +0.53.
