General Description

X-shooter observations aiming to get the redshift of the faint host of
 the extraordinary 
transient SNLS-06D4eu.

The host is faint, V=24, so a V=18th magnitude offset star is provided for the acquisition.
The coordinates in the OBs are those of the offset star.

The slit is positioned to minimise scattered light from a very bright nearby star.

Since, we do not know how bad the scattered light will be, we ask ESO
to execute just one OB, so that we can inspect the data and revise the strategy,
if this proves necessary.

Do all your OBs comply with the instrument-specific requirements listed on the instrument-specific Phase 2 web page ?

Do all your finding charts comply with both the general and instrument-specific Phase 2 Web Pages ?

If you submitted OBs for standard stars, did you specify the magnitude and spectral type of all standard stars in the OBs ?

```
N/A
```

Have you specified the S/N ratio at given wavelength in the User Comments field of each OB?

Have you included OBs for any calibrations that you need but which are not part of the Calibration Plan ?

```
N/A
```

If you are observing Moving Targets, have you attached suitable ephemeris files to your OBs?

```
N/A
```

If you have preferences which OBs should be executed first, did you make use of the User Priority field in the OBs ?

If this is a run that requires coordinated observations with other facilities, did you give proper instructions in the Time-Critical Aspects Section ?
