What is the status of the Z Cam Campaign? There are fewer observations uploaded and some of the light curves are sparse that they may not be meaningful (see V868 Cyg for example).
To my knowledge, the Z Cam campaign is still underway. There may be fewer observations due to summer break, but it would be of great scientific merit to keep building long-term light curves of those objects to reveal their nature. Some of the stars of interest are in the target tool, and they seem to be well observed:

We welcome recommendations of stars that need to be included in this list - I am sure we missed some important ones!
I hope this helps.
Best wishes - clear skies,
