The paper is nice, but hard to translate. Maybe the author, who 
undoubted dances tango and my even read this list could provide some  
summary.
The main message IMHO is "The milonga *is* the code"
"The milongas without code will then quickly cease to be magical places, 
up to finally looking much like the society around them. Competitive, 
individualistic, socially and generational segregated, milongas will be 
emptied of their meaning and of a certain social transcendence that 
ultimately, makes them havens of beauty."

magical dances to all
