No, not for the last couple of years.....

You can check the current Written and Lab Blueprints on the Cisco Routing and Switching CCIE page

To my understanding, ATM and ISDN are still used in production environments...

ATM is still used in a lot of carrier environments.... The Bells like to use it on their systems. ISDN is still hobbleing along unfortunately. About 5 months ago or so we moved a customer off of ISDN onto our network (wireless). I was surprized that in 2007, they were suffering wtih BRI ISDN.... Someone needs to just finish ISDN off and kick its wooden pegleg out from underneath it.....

ATM is still covered on the Service provider CCIE Lab exam.

Also ISDN is still used alot in older fire alarm systems and
alot of legacy remote hardware management systems.

Not on the R&S lab anymore but worth knowing for field work. I still encounter both technologies.
