I've created RSS feeds for several views using:
http://drupal.org/node/83597

Is it (easily) possible to have an argument or some other way to specify that I would like the RSS feed to use the modification date of a node, rather than the creation date?

The RSS feed for the view should be sorted exactly as the view. So if you change the sort criteria in the view this should have the effect you desire.

If you desire the RSS feed and the View to have different sorting criteria, THAT is going to be a problem, and I don't have a solution for you.

actually, the view & the feed do have the same items (& same sort order).

since the items are supplying their creation dates, hence when I modify older items, they aren't appearing with the Update date -- so I assume the problem then is not with Views, but either with Drupal RSS not letting me set which date is used, or newsreader client looking only for "new" items (and not seeing the older modified items).

sorry for the bother / confusion.
