That hasn't been decided yet. I think the process is:

 - people work on a variety of themes and mockups
 - the art team gets together and picks one, two or three themes that
are very distinctive (i.e. not just variations of the standard ubuntu
theme)
 - we pick leaders and committers for each of those themes
 - we ask everyone on the art list to work on those specific themes to
polish them up, under the direction of the theme leaders
 - we release Dapper with the ones that are relatively complete and
very good-looking, in main

Ah, thats interesting. I think we are supposed to be using Jimmac's
cursor theme, which I think is lovely, but it may be worth a review and
suggestions.Yep, Jimmac's one is pretty nice I think this (Neutral) can work  as a nice second choice since it uses the same style but with black cursors, it's really well done.Anyway those are the icon names needed for DND cursors if someone wants to add them to Jimmac's theme:
- dnd-none
- dnd-copy
- dnd-link
- dnd-move
- dnd-ask

The shape of the popup is fixed, the close icon needs work, the
background colour isn't final.Ok.Thanks for the attention, keep up the great work.CiaoMichele

The popup color is nice with human theme, but as soon as you change it
for something else, it looks really strange. IMO it should use the gtk
theme colors, or a boring color like the new old popup.



PS
I noticed that the notification-daemon has switched to an IMHO 
horrible yellow bubble, is this the final look? the previous one 
looks way more professional to me. ;-)

A nice cursor theme that is probably the most complete you
can find around and that provides Drag&Drop icons (supported by GTK
2.8), you can see those icons in action when you drag something with
nautilus for example:
