I know that this problem will continue with future controls...until we finish debating whether Thai Calendar is gregorian calendar
Anyway, while testing the control i found that Chinese, Japan, Taiwan calendars are all modeled as gregorian - which they have
just switched from their traditional calendars to gregorian a while ago. More interesting case is Taiwan, where they have Gregorian as Main calendar and with Taiwan Calendar as optional calendar
Seeing this, i would expect to see ThaiGrogorianCalendar which inherits from GregorianCalendar and MinSupportedDateTime is 1/1/1941 which is the date we decided to swtich to Gregorian Calendar and has ThaiBuddhismCalendar as the second optional calendar
to handle the rest...
And I do everything Gregorian way just use DateTime.Format( "yyyy" ) to get my 2552 from 2009 [:P]

OK, I gave up and created my own calendar for Gregorian Calendar which supports Thai! You can find it here: http://coresharp.net/blogs/projects/archive/2009/03/08/silverlight.aspx
