All:

Arne Henden and collaborators have put out two GCN circulars recently  
noting that they are now triggering their 35cm facility directly off  
of VOEvent messages:

   http://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov/gcn3/9220.gcn3
   http://gcn.gsfc.nasa.gov/gcn3/9211.gcn3

As far as I can see, this is the first explicit mention of direct  
VOEvent triggering on GRBs. Yeah, VOEvent.
