This is now implemented by inserting a Read more... tag (the button is located below the editor area) a dotted line appears in the edited text showing the split location for the Read more.... A new Plugin takes care of the rest.
It is worth mentioning that this does not have a negative effect on migrated data from older sites. The new implementation is fully backward compatible.

Bootstrap is a Sleek, intuitive, and powerful front-end framework for faster and easier web development. We use a new responsive, fluid grid system to create seamless, responsive layouts. By using the core Bootstrap and custom break points, our responsive design is as dynamic as possible using only CSS3 media queries.
Bootstrap also provides styles for common HTML elements like typography, code, tables, forms, and buttons. It also includes Glyphicons, a great little icon set, as well as the Font Awesome icon set for even more font based icons.
The XTC Bootstrap grid utilizes 12 columns, allowing you to create a fluid AND responsive layout. With the responsive grid in, the layout will adapt to any screensize. The columns become fluid and stack vertically, and each column will adapt to the available size it should have ensuring proper proportions all devices.
Media queries allow for custom CSS based on a number of conditions—ratios, widths, display type, etc—but usually focuses around min-width
and max-width
.
Use media queries responsibly and only as a start to your mobile audiences. For larger projects, do consider dedicated code bases and not layers of media queries.
