This is probably in the wrong section, but I wasn't sure where it should properly go. I've been out of the loop on MtG for awhile, last set I really played was Champions of Kamigawa.
Things seem to have changed concening sets and spoilers. It seems like back then, we'd have about a 1/4 of the set revealed by now, but as it stands for Alara Reborn, we've got nothing. Has WoTC gotten more strict on their "leaking" policy, or is there another cause?
Things really clamped down right around Ravnica and Time Spiral and involved some legal cases... We were "back on line" by Conflux, but the main source of spoilers recently was "caught" and threatened with legal action as well. So it's hard to say how busy the Alara Reborn spoiler season will look, but typically even in a good season this is far too early for much action. Usually right before WOTC starts spoiling on the main site is when we start seeing something... but again, this time could be very light as it's obvious WOTC isn't pulling any punches anymore.
Your sense of time is off.
According to the Rumor Mill Lists topic:
Aug 15th 2004: partial spoiler started (P minus 34)
CoK spoiler was started 34 days before the prerelease.
We are about 38 days before the prerelease right now.
Things have been about the same speed throughout.
That all said, we have the rumor mill lists to stop threads like this.

I just want to see me some good B/W cards
