Blizzard is normally pretty consistent with the dates they release expansion. There's also a announcement 2-3 weeks ahead of time when there is new content coming up.
Darkmoon Races
released 21st of januari
Onyxia's Lair
released 15th of februari
As of now there has been zero news about the coming mini-set. Or am I missing something?

Hopefully - never, so we can save 2000 more gold for new packs in April :) Mini-sets where kind of boring and low impact content, introduced just to strip the players of gold, mid expansions =(
The miniset is probably announced soon and potentially late February.
I'm thinking this week nothing yet, cause 1 week after big balance patch and they probably want to see it;s influence on the Meta and to take advantage of a stable meta a little bit to have people explore this properly before dumping more new cards on us.
Miniset content doesn't take 2-3 weeks to launch after the announcement, it might take a week at most, let say if they announce on this Thu, Feb 2, it might be released on Feb 7 or Feb 9.
Anyway, it should be coming soon in early Feb if they want to give the next meta for 2 months and keep up with their annual Core Set rotation along with Spring expansion to launch around early-mid April.
Onyxia's Lair was announced on Thursday the 10th of February last year, dropping just five days later on a Tuesday. If Blizz follows a similar schedule this year, the announcement will be on the 9th of February with the set dropping on the 14th.
As is always the case, they announce the mini-set immediately after the Heroic Brawl. You won't hear anything until Wednesday, February 8th. This is so people waste their gold on heroic brawl, and then have to spend real money on the mini set if they want it. You don't ever have to ask "when is the mini set going to be," because the answer is always immediately after the next heroic brawl.

Finally, someone gets it.
This is also why the release has started to happen the day after the announcement. It gives you less time to accumulate the gold you'll need for the purchase. (Note that the easy solution is to avoid Heroic Brawl like the plague.)

It'll be announced ~1 week after Heroic Brawl starts tomorrow
I still can't forget how they announced Darkmoon Races day or few before release.
