   1.Some items in the `.rat-excludes` file no longer exist in the Spark code 
repo, such as `SparkIMain.scala`. Perhaps one day in the future, we may add a 
file named `SparkIMain.scala` (a new file with the `same file name` as the old 
file, but with a different meaning) due to some requirements.  However, we did 
not add the required "License" header for this file.  According to the current 
mechanism, it should pass the `check-license`, but this check may not be our 
original intention.In addition.
   
   2.The `.rat-excludes` file seems to be constantly `adding` entries without a 
mechanism for `removing` them, which is not healthy for the file itself.
   
   The above is my personal opinion.  If I understand it incorrectly, please 
correct me.
