FWIW, I think in FOSS community this kind of an approach is generally
regarded as bad and as such they have a tendency to backfire. The best way
to move things in a desired direction is to actually provide strong and
compelling code contributions in a way that reaches ears of those whose vote
in kernel community carries most weight. So, yes, even in FOSS community
politics/PR does play an important part.

Best wishes,

Ico
