The roadmap page is only used for tracking changes for the upcoming releases 
(about 2 minor releases ahead) -- there are no issues assigned for 1.6.2.1 yet, 
which is why nothing shows up for 1.6.2.1 (it'll only show up once something has 
been assigned for that release).

More information about release schedules can be found on blogs.asterisk.org: 
http://blogs.asterisk.org/2009/11/10/asterisk-project-update-astricon-2009/

Scroll down to the Asterisk Release Policy Updates. December 18th, 2009 is the 
date of release for 1.6.2.0.
