What about the Xindi?

With what happened with the Xindi, I assume they do like the romulans and retreat behind their borders reassessing what they want to do in the galaxy at large. I"m sure you could have factions within starfleet trying to open relations with them and I'm sure they would agree to dialogue. But because they are so fractured within as a society especially after killing so may humans, I think they will take their time decisding their future. But I'm also sure there could be some Reptile/Insectoid XIndi's that might continue skimishes with starfleet ships.

I expect the insectoid and reptilian branches would end up fighting between themselves over military dominance of the others.

If I remember correctly didn't the aquatics use a slipstream type drive on their ships when they returned Archer et all back to earth space? That could be the tie in into Transwarp tried in the movies or I guess if you really wanted to twist this alternate timeline (I consider Enterprise to be an alternate timeline not an actual ToS prequal) you could have the Federation actually negotiate and get a slipstrem drive WELL before the time it appears in the novels follwong DS9 war era.

The Xindo really do provide a HUGE potential series of plotlines.

I always thought it would be neat to do a campaign based onthe temporal duplicate Paris and Janeway from the episode Time and Again dealing with the pre-Warp culture and building a warp-capable vessel to escape the planet and return to Federation space, recruiting aliens along the way to help them. Perhaps they could even connect with other Alpha-Quadrant survivors of the Caretaker's tender mercies.
