    https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/14981
  
    Spark kinesis has dependency on the kinesis client which is category-x
        <dependency>
          <groupId>com.amazonaws</groupId>
          <artifactId>amazon-kinesis-client</artifactId>
          <version>${aws.kinesis.client.version}</version>
        </dependency>
    
    Thus I would say we should also avoid to automatically publish it in a 
release and require a user to understand the license and build it themselves, 
at least this was my interpretation around what was discussed in 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LEGAL-198 and also at 
http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html#optional.
    
    Based on this, excluding the profile from published-profiles avoid 
publishing both during a Spark release, but should not affect any of the other 
build pieces for now.
    
    Thoughts ?
