Bryan Fuller, creator of the excellent Dead Like Me and even better Wonderfalls and even better Pushing Dasies, would like to create a new Star Trek series.
"I would love to return to the spirit of the old series with the colors and attitude. I loved Voyager and Deep Space Nine, but they seem to have lost the ‘60s fun and I would love to take it back to its origin." (From an iF Magazine interview.)
"I would love to do it in the same era as the J.J. Abrams movie, but on another starship on a completely different adventure. But it really is a dream and there is nothing official about it at all." (From Ain't It Cool News.)
Fuller wrote for both DS9 and Voyager, and produced Voyager's final season, which was the best one since Jeri Taylor stepped back from being in charge.
And, hell, if Fuller's great original series don't stick around for long (Although they should!), maybe a Fuller run Star Trek can.

This would be a smart move to bring back a good Star Trek show. Voyager was the last good Star Trek show. Fuller is a genius when it comes to witty, intelligent writing.
Voyager was good, but only for a while. After I missed a few episodes, I had to write the whole series off. The original series and TNG would allow you to watch more casually while still rewarding people who saw them all in order. I hope a new series would do that.
