Stinson's strong starter conjecture for cyclic groups

From papers

Let n5n\geq 5 be an odd integer. A strong starter in the cyclic group Zn\mathbb{Z}_n is a starter satisfying the additional distinct nonzero pair-sum condition defined in the paper. Stinson's conjecture. There exists a strong starter in Zn\mathbb{Z}_n if and only if n5,9n\neq 5,9. The cases n=5n=5 and n=9n=9 are known exceptions, while existence was proved for every odd n9n\neq 9 with 7n997\leq n\leq 99; the general cyclic case remains open.
