You can still do it (the easiest way is using the "PRS+ Installer" which is currently being tested, just unpack the zip on SD card and follow the instructions, other way is to read on this forum how to "downgrade" to US 1.1.00.18040 version). However you'll lose German localization. If that's important for you, you should wait until 1.1 release (should come in about 1 month or so).

For 1.1.00.18040 there is a user guide (in Russian, Spanish, English, German) on the PRS+ project site:

English.js is the only file that needs to be translated (it contains all strings). German öäüß probably have to be escaped, but if you don't know how, don't bother escaping, I'll do it (I am still figuring out how to do it automatically for Russian translation). Just do the translation.

md5 files contain md5 hash (you could use this utility to generate it under Windows):

I use them "just to be sure" that firmware wasn't corrupted.

Regarding restoring, until I'll integrate it into the installer, you could do it by replacing the following files (located in PRSPInstaller\Sony Reader\software\firmware\505\):

1.1.00.18040.root 1.1.00.18040.root.md5 - for rootfs (this is needed only if someone is using firmware version other than 1.1.00.18040)
Fsk.img Fsk.img.md5 - for fsk (/opt)
