I have extended the feedcreator class from here:
http://www.bitfolge.de/rsscreator-en.html
to be able to output GeoRSS (amongst a number of different fields - even KML
for Google Earth, with just a change of the format param!)
See the forum post I made on the creators Forum:
http://phpbb.bitfolge.de/viewtopic.php?t=246
which includes example code on how to use it.
There is a also the link there to reach the latest version from our CVS...
Demo here:

Subject: Re: [Geowanking] GeoRSS (and PhotoRSS) clients list anywhere?
Does anyone have PHP code for generating GeoRSS from MySQL data? I
definitely don't want to reinvent the wheel.
Basically, trying to convert shelters.org (the Homeless Shelters link)
into map form....
http://apps.grassroots.org/shelter_links/
I'm not yet sure of the best way to do that.
Here's a start, but really want a bunch of shelters on the map, and
not just one...

That's a good idea Barry. The problem is simply that GeoRSS is brand
spanking new. The syntax was only finalized this year, so I think people
are
just starting to build software with it.
