report on behalf of the Swift Team:
Due to a known race condition in the Swift software,
an image peak was misidentified as a rarely-seen source.
It was, however, correctly identified on the ground as
4U 1700-377, at a flux level that is often seen for this source.
Thus this detection is not an interesting event.
