When I'm using Meta Tags Quick latest dev with Cyrillic meta description which is just 150 symbols long - I get the error "Meta description: the value may not be longer than 255 characters." There is no any settings for the length of that field.

I think that's a problem with Unicode data store and symbols count.

Example of the description in Cyrillic:

«Дескрипшн» — 150 символів довжиною не хоче відображатися аж ніяк. Ніби не відображається, а так хотілося б. Пєчал-пєчал. Дуже потрібно, дійсно, ага!

Fixed validate function on field save, now it checks character, not byte length.
Make sure you have multibute character set/collation in MySQL.

P.S. Nice description example :)
