84\begin{abstract}
85We ask for observations of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) for the next six months of year 2005.
86Therefore we present a detailed strategy for the observation of GRBs.
87X-Ray Flashes (XRFs) and Soft Gamma Repeaters (SGR)
88are also included in our proposal, given their similarities to GRB phenomena.
89All observations will be mainly triggered by \sw.
90In addition, the \he and \ig satellites can contribute a small number of alerts.
91The \sw collaboration expects a total alert rate of about 15 per months --
92although with big uncertainties -- out of which 1--2 should be
93observable by \ma due to our
94duty cycle. The overlap in sky converages between \sw and \ma seems to be favorable for \ma.
95As it is still unknown how many alerts \sw will deliver exactly,
96we cannot predict the alert frequency now to better than 100\% uncertainty.
97This leads to an expected observation time of 5$\pm$5 hours per month.
98This number includes observation during the moon-time.
99We give a detailed description of the observation procedures in La Palma and
100propose to spend few dedicated nights to test the automatic alert procedure
101with the subsystem experts. We suggest to review the situation in half a year from now.
