The Culture names in the Mono implementation is outdated. I tried getting
Screwturn WIKI up and running on Mono, but was met by the following exception:

Culture name sr-latn-cs is not supported.
Parameter name: name

Description: HTTP 500. Error processing request.

Stack Trace:

System.ArgumentException: Culture name sr-latn-cs is not supported.

Removing or renaming the specified cultures in App_Resources makes the problem
go away.


It shows that the Culture names in Mono 2.0 is just not the same as the current
ASP.NET 2.0 implementation. Shouldn't this be updated?

Microsoft KB article on the subject: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/939949

Repro steps:

Either download Screwturn WIKI: http://www.screwturn.eu or create a small app
which uses the culture "sr-latn-cs" as a resourece
