100% there will be a new server. Way to much on going work on bug fixes and patches that have no impact on the current servers for there not to be. We have yet to get a channeling/resists overhaul but we know its actively being worked on and seems to be close to deployable pending additional research/insights. I've long said this is the main thing that needs to occur before a new server will be considered.
The announcement of EQL certainly pushes the timeline out. I wouldn't expect to see a new server for at least 2 years, even if everything is ready to launch just to avoid competition for players between the projects.
