I think that people with a real open mind would not try to keep
anyone out based on their dress-code.
I have been a long-time anti "suits/ties" person... and I virtually
never wear one. But getting older. I have learnt that "I dress how 
I want and you dress how you want" is the better phrasing... 
In other words... "the dress-code" is irrelevant. 
Just keep the "hacker spirit" and remove the "(no suits, please!)"
