I think, that is excactely how you do it. That's how I do it anyhow.
My site (personal travel website) doesn't have daily updates, so, I
actually create the xml's manually from the CMS (button excecuting the
'create rss feed' functionality). However, you obviously can chuck that
into a scheduled task or even automatically output the xml file after
every change to the DB. I reckon, that depends on your business needs.
Dunno, maybe there are better ways to do it. It works for me though and
the RSS feed is actually used quite a bit.
Good luck.

I'd like to add a couple of RSS Broadcast Channels to a site.
Easiest way seems to be:
1. Create an admin page for add/edit items to database
2. Any change to the database uses cffile to write a
new properly formatted XML file to the server.
Almost seems too easy, therefor I *know* I'm missing something. Am I?
