The spring meeting of the German TeX User Group (DANTE) is going to take place in Lahnau (between Wetzlar and Gießen) from March 12–14.
From personal experience, I can say that the Dante meeting is always great fun, many interesting talks (mostly in German), opportunities to meet old and new friends and memorable excursions.
