Would it be possible to get an RSS feed of the updates on this page so that we can more-easily keep up with news and software updates?

Nope, that doesn't do what you think it does.
Can you elaborate?
When there are news updates, it's not the wiki page/code that gets updated. There's something that's embedded in the News wiki page already that's pulling the news feed from elsewhere.
You can see this if you go to the normal history page. Notice how infrequently the page code is actually changed:

Oh, obviously.
Edit: sorry. Dumb URI error.

I appreciate your persistence to try and help. Unfortunately, that feed is also not right. That one has items going back to Dec 22nd but none are Mediawiki version updates.
The update on 2022-12-22T22:17:06Z is "Release MediaWiki 1.39.0 is now available." How is that *not* what you are looking for? This feed shows all updates to that page, including new MediaWiki releases.
RSS Feed?
Correct.
Correct.
FWIW, I came here also looking for an RSS or atom feed that would display similar data to what is on the page, but via a feed.
And does the above resolve it for you?
What?
