Is there any schedule for an Emacs 24 release?

I don't think it makes much sense until bidi-display-reordering can be t
by default with good conscience.

And that still awaits 2 major developments (reordering of display
strings and bidirectional horizontal scroll), not to mention a few
minor ones.

Btw, I think Emacs 23.3 should be released as well, and before 24.1.

No.  There is still quite a bit of work to do, at least in the areas
that I've been keeping a closer eye on.  (The packaging system still
needs some tweaks, I hope to populate elpa.gnu.org with a few major
packages that are in the process of copyright assignment, the CEDET port
needs to be improved and synched to upstream, etc...)

I personally hope that we will be ready early for pretest next year.
But, Stefan has been taking a look at lexical scoping, and I haven't
checked in with him about whether he plans to include that for Emacs 24
(Stefan?).  If it's added, I imagine that take at least a few additional
months.

That sounds like a reasonable thing to aim for.  By then the gnutls
stuff should have gotten a thorough testing, for instance.

It will.  I've discussed this with Stefan, and I think we might begin
the 23.3 pretest in, say, a month.  Stefan wants to include smie.el, and
needs a bit more time to polish it first.  (We'd also like to backport
some of the VC improvements from the trunk; the rest of 23.3 will be
mostly bugfixes.)

Yes, lexical scoping is slated for inclusion in Emacs-24 (as an
"experimental feature" at least).  I hope to install it before Xmas.

Stupid question: how will it impact the Elisp debuggers?

Most concretely some paperwork for the closure-conversion code, but also
some clean up and simplifications.
