Plugins:
[b]Here[/b] is a link the latest v0.2 how-to. It also includes translations of some Metasequoia plugins and basic info on how to use Keynote. So it could be useful for people interested in Keynote more than Sword of Moonlight. Additional translated plugins are listed below including Keynote.

Here are some additional translated Metasequoia plugins (batch#1).
‎  UVPowerUnwrap was already in English, but some of the directions in its readme are translated. Home
‎  EasyUV gives a control panel for better control when moving UVs around. Home

Here are some additional translated Metasequoia plugins (batch#2):
‎  Pipe lets you draw a 'framework' with lines, then extrudes a pipe tree along the lines. For pipeworks, or maybe trees. Home
‎  Multi-Bevel extrudes selected faces with various taper and division options Home
‎  Loop is a 5 function plugin Home:
