 ### Failing "uss_qualifier tests" CI check
 
-If `make presubmit` succeeds on a developer's local machine, the GitHub CI actions should succeed as well.  [A known issue](https://github.com/interuss/monitoring/issues/28) frequently causes the "uss_qualifier tests" check to fail.  If the failed check indicates a query response code of 999 (this is the code InterUSS indicates when no response is received), this is very likely the problem.  A committer can rerun the CI check and it is likely to succeed on the second try with no changes.

-If anyone can resolve [issue #28](https://github.com/interuss/monitoring/issues/28) which causes this problem, that help would be enormously appreciated by InterUSS.
+If `make presubmit` succeeds on a developer's local machine, the GitHub CI actions should succeed as well.  If `make presubmit` succeeds locally but the GitHub CI actions fail, that may indicate help from an InterUSS committer would be helpful.
