I got the email notification that there's a new C60 firmware out (7.2.1) as of last week, but I am not seeing any release notes on the Cisco website. Am I searching in the wrong (but most obvious) places?

No, but the point is, you shouldn't have to - and listing a link to the security advisory page where there are no mention of the software in question, instead of the release notes, really isn't helpful.

Only clue I can find is via the pop-up you get when selecting a product, it has a link which points to a security advisory:http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/collaboration-endpoints/telepresence-integrator-c-series/products-security-advisories-list.html - but I cannot find any reference to TC7.2.1 there either. :(

Wayne is correct, check the TC7 release notes linked in his reply on pg 13. It covers the TC7.2.1 release.
Cisco hasn't been releasing individual release notes for every TC software release, they simply add to the existing release notes for that major version, so it's just a matter of sifting through the sometimes large and long document to find the version you're looking for, and at times, it might not be easy to find especially a security release such as TC7.2.1.

Yep - it's all in the release notes I linked earlier.
TC7.2.1 mentioned in:

No, but there's normally a link to the release notes in the software download area, either in the right hand corner above the download area and/or in the pop-up window. This time it was only a link to the security advisory page which was listed - which in turn did not have a single mention of TC7.2.1 in any of the bulletins - at least not when I looked. Pretty poor form on Ciscos part. :(

It's not too hard to find it though if you try ;)

Agreed- but it's also available on the Cisco web site - if you go to http://software.cisco.com/download/release.html?mdfid=283613656&softwareid=280886992&release=TC7.2.1&relind=AVAILABLE&rellifecycle=&reltype=latest, the release notes do appear in the section at the bottom of the screen, so it's not that difficult to find them if you're looking in the right places.

Never saw that section - maybe I should start scrolling so I see the whole page....

Thank you for helping me find the release notes. I didn't realize that the PDF file was swapped to show the 7.2.1 notes. I didn't look at that PDF file before today because the date next to it was old and I didn't realize that the "TC7" in the title implied a comprehensive set of all "TC7.0 through Current" release notes. I will say that it is a bit confusing with the "publication" date next to it being older, but now that I know how Cisco labels things on the Release Notes links on the software downloads pages, I will check there first next time. Here is how the file containing (7.0 through) 7.2.1 notes is labeled on the 7.2.1 software download page:
