Setting the culture and uiCulture in Web.config with NAnt

Here's the recipe for setting the culture and uiCulture in Web.config with NAnt:

<xmlpoke
	file="path/to/the/en-US/Web.config" 
	xpath="/configuration/system.web/globalization/@culture"
	value="en-US"/>
<xmlpoke
	file="path/to/the/en-US/Web.config" 
	xpath="/configuration/system.web/globalization/@uiCulture"
	value="en-US"/>

When we perform mock-localization, we make a copy of the base culture directory (which contains culture-specific Web.config, aspx, ascx, image, and stylesheet files), mock-translate the resource files into the target language and build satellite assemblies for that culture, and then set the culture and uiCulture in the copy of Web.config for that culture appropriately.
