in drupal 6.2 the "Text length:" doesn't have any affect. The length stays the same... words get cut off even if you put large number here.

OK, this is a bug. In the database schema, the content of a meta tag can be at most 255 chars.

      'content' => array(
        'type' => 'varchar',
        'length' => 255,
        'not null' => FALSE,
        'default' => '',
        'description' => t('Content of meta tag value.'),

So even if you set the text cut-off to a large value, the value stored in the database is limited to 255 chars.

I'll try to make a patch asap.

Patched (correctly this time) so that the database column size is updated every time a larger max size is requested.
