Hollywood looks like it'll start opening up again on June 12th!
According to the Hollywood Reporter.

Well good, because I'm not actually interested.
And, anyway, Ron Moore already put together Battlestar Galactica.
The ending was just incomprehensible... Soong was perfectly all right with calling the things and let them destroy all biological sentient life in the galaxy but he changed his mind because he saw the android girl kill another android? What the? How do these two things even relate to each other?
And that's only one thing. The list of things that don't make sense is endless.

Simple: organic life isn't the only threat.
God no. '90s Trek is dead (much like 60s Trek was dead when TNG hit the air in 1987).
Let it go and embrace change.
Soong was defending his family from what he saw as an existential threat to their existence. He changed his tune when he found out that he had been lied to by one of his family and that she presented the real threat. Simple.
Soongs have a habit of believing the bullshit they've been taught or convinced themselves to buy into until they begin to see the tragic error of their ways. Arik was perfectly fine with the Augments wreaking havoc on Earth until they turned on him. Noonien didn't see the threat Lore really was until it was too late, convinced his creations couldn't be that dangerous to others. And then Alton realizing that he'd let himself be suckered into believing that the solution to Synth existence and autonomy lay in the Romulan prophecy and allowing the galaxy to be invaded to save his children.
I differ. He was well-prepared to let all sentient-biological life in the galaxy be eradicated. That's billions of people: and changed his mind about the whole thing because of ONE incident.
But I sense that we'll never agree on this one.
I'm pretty sure people are taking what @Cyrus said out of context. He was joking.God no. '90s Trek is dead (much like 60s Trek was dead when TNG hit the air in 1987).

But, if CBS offered me millions to work with Ron Moore, who would I be to say no?
On a more serious note, though: If Jonathan Frakes could make the transition from the Berman Era to the Kurtzman Era as a director, so could Ron Moore as a writer. If any of the previous Trek writers could, it's him. His work on BSG is proof enough for me. He was sick of Berman Era Trek. His work on BSG was mainly a direct reaction to his (very) short experience on VOY and, to a lesser extent, things he wasn't allowed to do on TNG and DS9. So if he were to work on Star Trek again, it wouldn't be like what he did on Star Trek before. He also likes what they're doing now.
I'll tell you who you really don't want: Someone who would do things exactly the same as they were done during the Berman Era and doesn't like the direction things have gone in with DSC and PIC. And hasn't demonstrated proof they can do things any differently. I don't want people like that either. They can go to The Orville where they belong.
I wouldn't rule out someone automatically just because they worked on Star Trek before. I'd rule them out if they couldn't adapt to how it's done now.

You don't think people change because of one incident?
Just wanted to say I have enjoyed Star Trek Picard. I wonder if any of the ships featured will reach Eaglemoss one day.
They will.
I almost went in for just for this ship.
