None afaik officially, that is as announced on the 6bone mailinglist.
But there are quite a number of prefixes which have not been announced
for quite some time already as per:

Someone might want to contact these people if they want to return their
allocation or simply to query them if there is anyone even still aware
that they actually have such a prefix. Some of the above ISP's have
migrated to RIR space, but simply haven't bothered officially yelling
"hey we had fun and we are done, we are returning the space".

3ffe:3800::/24 (FIBERTEL) & 3ffe:1300::/24 (NORTEL) are both being
announced by FIBERTEL (10318) but I have never been able to contact them
about fixing them announcing 3ffe:1300::/24. One thing to note though is
that the inet6num for 3ffe:1300::/24 is gone from the 6bone database,
while the ipv6-site is still there...

Greets,
 Jeroen

BTW: Of course, even though a prefix is not globally announced people
could still be using it, in which case they are most likely reading this
list and can easily comment here that they are still using it.
Wasn't there a clause in the pTLA thing that you needed valid contacts
and that one must be subscribed to this list ? :)
