If they're smart, what they'll do is set it in the original continuity, but with some lessons from what was successful in the new continuity's movies, and possibly also an episode or two that uses alternative-universe situations to bring in the new continuity's universe.
If they *must* go with the new continuity, they should at least time-jump it so that it's more in the time of Next Gen-Voyager rather than TOS.
