Most modern blogging platforms support RSS feeds for categories/tags out of the 
box.  Wordpress and Wordpress.com do it by appending "/feed/" to the end of the 
category url.  For example if you wanted to subscribe to only OSGeo posts from 
my blog, you'd just subscribe to:

feed://www.spatiallyadjusted.com/category/open-source/open-source-geospatial-foundation/feed

There isn't really anything complicated about it.  You could also just 
subscribe to all open source posts via:

feed://www.spatiallyadjusted.com/category/open-source/feed/

It is just that simple.  Some folks in PlanetGS provide only category feeds.  I 
know Typepad can't do this and blogger couldn't before (not sure about that 
anymore).  But most folks should be migrating to Wordpress anyway for their 
blogging so this really isn't too much of an issue.

I assume you could modify your outgoing feed to accept a filter?   
Then the subscribed URL would reflect it.
