Hi!
I don't know how long this has been there, but if you go on the "Year of Dragons" page:
http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/yearofdragons
You can download a pdf brochure with all the dragon-themed products of WotC for this year.
Among "Dragonmarked" (an Eberron source book on Dragonmarked characters and house) and "Dragon Magic" (an generic source book), you have "Scourge of the Howling Horde".
Scourge of the Howling Horde
Brave new heroes are needed to thwart goblinoid raids on the countryside and discover the draconic influence behind the attacks in this introductory adventure for players and
Dungeon Masters.

This plot sounds a lot like the one of Red Hand of Doom to me. I guess it is a strange coincidence, but can't WotC find another idea??
RHoD does already a perfect job of being THE adventure of goblinoids being run/inspired by Dragons, so why have another one the same year??

I'm wondering if it's a prequel or a sequel. I would guess a prequel based on the description of it being an introductory adventure for players and dungeon masters and thus a lower-level adventure than RHoD. Of course, it could be a sequel for other low-level characters to deal with a sort of aftermath effect of the goblinoids running amok without any organization or whatever.
That would of course make it more relevant and interesting!
I wonder if James has any information about this that he is allowed to share...
