There's a Jira issue open for it with some code attached... It may be a bit out of date, but should be able to be fixed up...

The drawback of that is > introducing another layer when the rendering could be done on > the dispatcher itself or not done at all and left for the > requestor (in the case where the requestor is not a browser > but a client through HTTP or through a ClientDispatcher).

If the > actions are able to respond with a standard XML interface it > would be a snap to provide Web Services interfaces to > Webwork2 (more power to it). Thanks. Let me know.
