What exactly do you mean by the "trais of the -current"?  If you mean the
relative instability and constantly changing nature, no, it won't.  The
feature freeze is happening tonight or tomorrow (I think, the exact
timeline was posted on current-users).  Since the 1.3 release is to be
December 1st (once again, check to timeline in the current-users archive),
this gives us over a month to make 1.3 as stable and reliable as possible.
The advantage of rolling your own kernels is that you can come up with a
much cleaner and leaner kernel which doesn't have a lot of stuff in it
that you don't need.

Later.
