Yes, preferably changing real world cursor solutions to non-cursor code.
Okay, I'll take this one on then. I envision a series of articles... "Is this cursor necessary?". I'll take one cursor apart, look at the business requirements, and if it's not necessary, then re-write it into a set-based solution.
Since this will be a series, if anyone wants to through a cursor my way, it will be helpful.
