The Very Faint X-ray Transient (VFXT) XMMUJ174716.1-281048 (ATel #147 and Sidoli et al., 2006, A&A 456, 287) is being observed with Swift/XRT since May 2007 (Degenaar et al. 2007, ATel #1136), in order to monitor the level of activity during the latest outburst, which started in 2003 (Del Santo et al., 2007, A&A 468, L17; ATel #1078, #1136). XMMUJ174716.1-281048 is indeed the first VFXT with a ``quasi persistent" behaviour.
