Three additional supernovae were discovered and confirmed during this period and eight known CVs were
detected in outburst. Numerous other transient and highly variable sources were discovered and are posted at http://nesssi.cacr.caltech.edu/catalina/Allns.html
More information including finding charts and five year light curves can be found at http://voeventnet.caltech.edu/feeds/ATEL/CRTS/
Follow-up is requested.
