It has everything to do with the script in ST. Frakes did ok as a director for Insurrection but the script was pure poo.
Meyer's directed one movie (for TV) since he did undiscovered country. he's written a lot, though, so maybe he wants to focus on writing instead of directing.

Frakes did a great job on First Contact, yes, but not so good on Insurrection.
Would Meyer be interested in coming back for a new Star Trek? He directed no. 2 and 6, and co-wrote no. 4. He has yet to work on a non-original-cast movie.
Personally I don't mind the idea of Damon playing Kirk, but he seems about the same age as Shatner in the original show so I don't know how that would work exactly.

Bryan Singer is about the only one I would trust with it...or Jonathan Frakes. Frakes did a fantastic job with First Contact.
And Brannon Braga and Ronald D. Moore to write the script.
OR
Director Nicholas Meyer (who directed Wrath of Khan).

I was browsing the IMDB and found out that Star Trek XI is really being planned. In addition it seems that Matt Damon has been at least approached to star as a young Captain Kirk.
2008 is a year of remakes, with Indiana Jones IV (I know, they've talked about it for a decade), Jurassic Park IV and next Harry Potter advanture.
