I think very early march after MWC might be a bit challenging to
organize given the limited lead-time.  Late in march might be
overlapping with Easter holidays, where people might have holiday plans,
or attend other events like EasterHegg.

So personally, I think early April might be a better choice then.

Question to the list at large: Would you prefer or avoid overlap with
Easter?

I understand that position and don't mind it at all.

Regards,
