No Lukasz, I'm afraid I haven't I've just had a quick look at the REST plugin in the trunk, I'm assuming that's the new version of the plugin you are referring to, and I remembered that apart from the convention plugin issues we had, another issue, was that every time we had a non REST action being called. the RestActionMapper, would find it in the configuration and would treat it as a rest action with no method, so it would try to guess the method and fail because the method didn't exist in the Action class. By having a quick look at the code, I think we will still have that issue. P.S I'm not seeing anything related to the struts.rest.namespace in the ActionMapper.
