Semantic MediaWiki can do RSS feeds (and all kinds of other data 
exports, e.g. RDF or JSON if you want to push data; it is not really 
focussed on RSS in any way). Exported items are always complete 
articles, with <noinclude> used to limit what the amount of text pushed 
to the feed. Examples of this are, e.g., at the SMW homepage:

http://semantic-mediawiki.org/wiki/Semantic_MediaWiki

Most features of SMW are not really relevant if you just want RSS; 
basically you could export articles by category, most recent item first.

The above category on MediaWiki.org was new to me; I will add SMW to it.
