That's the part I was getting at when I mentioned an podcast "server".
Yes, it's just an RSS feed, but you want something that's going to
build and update that feed and handle authentication. The
authentication could just be HTTP BasicAuth, but you're still looking
for something to manage the feed generation.

You could do this pretty quickly with Python, or any other language,
but I'm not aware of anything that's already assembled.

It would just basically have to monitor that folder (launchd could
monitor file additions / deletions or just run periodically), parse
any tags you want to use or just grab the file name, assemble a valid
RSS feed, and write out the result to your Internet-facing server.
