There is a huge problem with our current (Bluecurve) icon theme: the 
source is available only in raster (Photoshop) format, so to make 
anything with it you have to basically redraw it (with the lack of any 
written guidelines). If someone is interested in the task, here are the 
files: https://fedorahosted.org/bluecurve/browser/bluecurve/cursors

But there appears a logical question: if we moved past Bluecurve as an 
icon theme, is not logical to go with a fresh cursor theme too?

We had some people trying to create cursor themes from scratch, the most 
notable effort being related to the Echo theme[1], but as Echo is 
somewhat in a limbo, the cursor theme is in a worse shape.

note: I don't see on art.gnome.org of gnome-look.org categories for 
cursor themes to propose something else as a base.
