I am planning to start an Organic chemistry problems marathon as
well, similar to the POTW and Daily Questions. Hope the organic
forum gets livelier.
1. Find the major product of the following reaction, and give
mechanism.
(Note: The reaction is H+ catalysed)
(Note 2: The problem figure is attached to the post)

Seems like no one is interested in the problem. Still, it won't
hurt to post a hint. :)
[spoiler=Hint]
Ethers get protonated in acid medium. So a carbocation will be
formed, and some rearrangements will occur. At the end H+ will
leave.
