currentuiculture

I would like to know how I can configure my Silverlight application to be able to change the UICulture of the current thread without having to recompile the application.

If I set the current thread culture in the app.xaml, I need to recompile each time to change the culture. If I add an Application Settings, how can I retrieve that information on the client to be able to change the current thread culture info?

any ideas ?
