No it is not. Though there are a number of nice projects out there, like 960.gs and Twitter's Bootstrap, it was built from the ground up without any of these extra elements.
The idea was to modify as little code as possible, and not add anything to XC's underlying structure. XC already has many CSS classes and custom code implementations of libraries like jQuery. The main idea behind this template was to simply provide the basis of responsive design, to a familiar template (ideal_comfort), while modifying the core as little as possible.
You have included style sheets that deal with the different device widths, special code to deal with popups on small screens, and the removal of a multitude of tables. Much care has been taken to ensure that every aspect of XC was considered, all the elements/pages/sections are responsive, not just the main pages.
The result is that you can give your "full website" experience to your mobile and tablet customers, without sacrificing anything for those on larger screens. Small screens (down to 350px) will be presented with content that is legible without zooming and panning, and large monitors can be filled up to 1280px wide. The "base" size is indeed 960px.
This template is designed as a base for new XC stores, or as a starting point for that much needed redesign/upgrade. Simply installing this template will not make your existing site responsive (of course) but it will provide that structure for your new site design.
