Another alternative might be the Linux Hotel in Essen: We've
met there with the Security Team and it is a really nice place
run by Debian-friendly staff.
They're using the hotels for open source trainings throughout
the week and in the weekend they give open source projects the
possibility to meet there. Essen has the benefit to be easier
to reach than Caceres (the Koeln/Bonn airport is quite close
to Essen while Caceres is only reachable through Madrid and a
lengthy train ride).
Cheers,
Moritz
