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bit out of date, but should be able to be fixed up...

>  1 - On the ClientDispatcher, if you give me pointers I'll 
> get on it right away. Can't promess 'flash' speed, but will 
> get it done.  2 - On the XML/XSL view: Having either Velocity 
> or JSP render the XML is an option. 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). In 
> the latter case, all that would be needed is the ability to 
> not have a view at all and respond with the result of a 
> method call on the bean (just an idea) that would return a 
> string representation of the bean (in this case XML). 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. Sergio Infante
