From
Alexandre Pelangeon at LATT,OMP,Toulouse <alexandre.pelangeon@ast.obs-mip.fr>
A. Pelangeon & J-L. Atteia (LATT-OMP) report:

We have used the spectral parameters obtained for the most intense part
of GRB 070328 -- from T0 to T-T0 ~22 sec, Konus time (V. Pal'shin, Ioffe 
Inst.,
private communication) -- observed by Konus-Wind (Golenetskii et al., 
GCNC 6230)
to compute the spectral pseudo-redshift** of this burst detected by 
SWIFT-BAT
(Markwardt et al., GCNC 6224; Stamatikos et al., GCNC 6225).

We find a pseudo-redshift pz= 2.75 +/- 0.95

We thank V. Pal'shin for having kindly performed the spectrum analysis
of the most intense part and providing us the spectral parameters.
