Hi Ivan,
I think nobody except Cisco could confirm something like that. It is not on the blueprint, but it is also not specifically excluded (like for instance Token Ring and IGRP). Therefore it is in a grey area where it would be fair game on the lab, though Cisco probably does not consider it a core topic, since it's not in the blueprint.
The only way to way to really confirm that it is or is not on the lab would be by people breaking the NDA to tell you if they had it on their specific lab or not. And even then it could always be introduced or left out of future labs at Cisco's will, since it is not on the list of excluded topics and is configurable on the equipment.
On the other hand, I personally feel that anybody who is comfortable with IP (VLSM, subnetting, summarization) and the IP Routing protocols at the CCIE level should have the skills to deal with RIPv1. Just practice with it for a bit to get a feel for typical peculiarities of a classfull protocol, but don't spend weeks on it.
Of course this is just my personal interpretation of Cisco's published guidelines, so I'd definitely be interested to hear what other people think of this.

Subject: RIPv1 - yes or no
Hello GS,
I just have seen on
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/learning/le3/ccie/rs/lab_exam_blueprint.html that
RIPv1 is NOT in the Lab blueprint. Can someone confirm for sure that RIPv1
is/is not on the lab?
Regards,
Ivan
P.S: If it's not, I'll miss those FSLM/VSLM shit... :-)
