Ok. Now, i don't use 're' and 'string' modules. So, this line can be
removed.

Yes, i've made the correction.

Addressed.

Addressed. Now, i'm not using a regexp compilation.

Addressed. Now, i'm not using the 'string' module.

I guess, it is not okay to split on a character that isn't in the
string. If it is 'None', it reports:
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'split'

If it is not defined, it reports:
NameError: name 'revision' is not defined

So, i'm doing this:

    if (commit_rev == None):
      # TODO: do the 'svnlook youngest' thing
    else:
        rev_range = commit_rev.split(':')
        len_rev_range = len(rev_range)
        if (len_rev_range == 1):
            revisions = [int(commit_rev)]
        elif (len_rev_range == 2):
            start, end = rev_range
            start = int(start)
            end = int(end)

> else:
> usage_and_exit("Revision specification '%s' is invalid." \
> % (commit_rev))

To maintain the uniformity across the script, i changed it as:

        else:
            usage_and_exit("svn2rss.py: Invalid value '%s' for \
--revision." % (commit_rev))

Please find attached the revised patch. Thank you!

[[[
* contrib/hook-scripts/svn2rss.py
  (__init__): Add 'try' block and handle ValueError for revision. Here,
    if the revision is not set, set it to the youngest one. Handle one
    and range of revisions. Finally, for each revision, add the rss feed
    to the file.
  (SVN2RSS.__init__): Pop the rss items from the feed, while length of
    rss feed >= max items
