This GRB was hard to track down - it wasn't a BATSE burst, but rather a
BeppoSAX alone burst.

If people do an offline analysis and come up with a null result, it
would be good to send that null result to the BACODINE mailing list,
especially since a check in neutrinos was requested. At least, that's
what all the photon-based observers do.

Here's the messages from the VSNET archives.
