72\begin{abstract}
73We present a detailed strategy for the observation of Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) for the first
74half year of 2005.
75All observations will be mainly triggered by alerts from \sw.
76In addition, the \he and \ig satellites can contribute a small number of alerts.
77The \sw collaboration expects a total alert rate of about 15 per months --
78although with big uncertainties -- out of which 1--2 should be observable due to our
79duty cycle. The overlap in sky converages between \sw and \ma seems to be favorable for \ma.
80As it is still unknown how many alerts \sw will deliver exactly, and how its sky coverage matches
81with the one of \ma,
82we cannot predict the alert frequency now to better than 100\% uncertainty.
83This leads to an expected observation time
84of 5$\pm$5 hours per month. This number includes observation during the moon-time.
85We give a detailed description of the observation procedures in La Palma and
86propose to spend one dedicated night to test the automatic alert procedure
87with the subsystem experts.
88We suggest to review the situation in half a year from now.
