The Very Faint X-ray Transient (VFXT) XMMU J174716.1-281048 (ATel #147 and Sidoli et al., 2006, A&A 456, 287) is being observed with Swift/XRT since May 2007 (ATel #1078), 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; ATels #1078, #1136, #1174, #1496). XMMU J174716.1-281048 is indeed the first source classified as "quasi persistent" VFXT.
