Yes.

I see that there are URLs associated with the W3C® Software License in
several of the files that are listed in the rat.unknowns.txt file.
http://www.w3.org/Consortium/Legal/2002/copyright-software-20021231

We now detect that as a W3C license.  We also accept the SPDX tag.

It might be interesting to see how many of the files are now detected.
