Colin,

Below is an example of how to create a simple RSS feed in CF.  Just need to run a loop over the <item> tag for all of your content.

Here are some links for reference:

Hope this helps!

Just curious - does anyone have a good resource for creating an rss.xml file from a cold fusion query.

 

Thanks
