"We have observed the GRB 071112C field (Perri et al., GCN 7059) using
Lulin 1-m telescope. The R-band image with 150 sec exposure marginally
detected the optical afterglow (Perri et al., GCN7059, Yuan et al
GCN7061 Wang et al GCN7063) with 20.3 +/- 0.3 at 1.77 hrs after the
burst. This result is consistent with extrapolation from the RTT150
observations with power-law index -0.83 reported by Burenin et
al. (GCN7066)."
