is there any to remove all the additional languages (de, es, fr, ...) .
It keeps building them everytime, probably increasing my xap size alot.

what do you mean with additional languages? You find in your app dll nothing special.

Look at setting the culture attribute of the globalization element in the web.config file to auto. Also take a look at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hy4kkhe0.aspx for more info. Hope this helps.

What I mean is for example take a look at the web application directory of your project.
In the bin folder I have many resource dll like System.Web.Silverlight.resources for Korean and it increases my web application size. and that makes my updating of the web application quite slow ( I only have about 19 KBytes/S here in Israel)

19kb/s - thats really slow- and good reminder that not everybody owns a 30 MBit DSL
back to your issue: yes- but that is not transfered to client. Only XAP form clientbin goes over the wire. You can open the xap eg with winrar and you will (hopefully) see no resource DLL's

Thank you very much Hannes.
By the way, I'm looking forward to your explanation about xap compression
