71\begin{abstract}
72We present a detailed strategy for the observation of Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) for the first
73half year of 2005.
74All observations will be mainly triggered by alerts from \sw.
75In addition, the \he and \ig satellites can contribute a small number of alerts.
76The \sw collaboration expects a total alert rate of about 15 per months --
77although with big uncertainties -- out of which 1--2 should be observable due to our
78duty cycle. The overlap in sky converages between \sw and \ma seems to be favorable for \ma.
79As it is still unknown how many alerts \sw will deliver exactly, and how its sky coverage matches
80with the one of \ma,
81we cannot predict the alert frequency now to better than 100\% uncertainty.
82This leads to an expected observation time
83of 5$\pm$5 hours per month. This number includes observation during the moon-time.
84We give a detailed description of the observation procedures in La Palma and
85propose to spend one dedicated night to test the automatic alert procedure
86with the subsystem experts.
87We suggest to review the situation in half a year from now.
