An Abrams crossover would make a certain amount of sense, as that reality is closer both stylistically and technologically to Star Wars to begin with than traditional Trek.

Speaking on crossovers, according to IMDB on trivia, Abrams had a meeting with lucas on how the star trek film could be better to which lucas replied 'add lightsabers'

I think that it's safe to say that it would be pre new hope empire, for the same reason that it would be J.J. Abrams for ST.

Why? They'd want to have as many of the classic characters as possible.

I disagree. I would want to use actors that have performed most recently, rather than trying to cast new people in old roles. ST did this, but I see no need to reboot just for a SW?ST crossover when you could just use the actors from episode 3 and set it in the early days of the empire, especially with the interest in this era generated by the force unleashed.
