Thanks to Valeria for sending me an invite to the Slack, I've been able 
to
join and chat with the PG Slack owner (@denish, CC'd).

It turns out there's a specific page we should be sending new people for
joining the PG Slack:

   https://postgres-slack.herokuapp.com

That's an app which generates invites to the PG Slack, and doesn't have 
a
restriction on email address. :)

(On a semi-related note, the Go language Slack has an app for the same
thing.  Seems a fairly standard approach for larger sized Slacks these
days.)

+ Justin
