Well I don't care about the "official canon". I regard OT as completely canon. Then there are EU sources that I regards almost completely canon (by that I mean I ignore a few things I don't like within the source) such as KOTOR1/2 SWTOR, JK2 and JKA. And then there are sources from which I mostly only pick the major events and characters (example: Thrawn Trilogy - not that I dislike it, I just never got into it). And lastly there is stuff that I mostly ignore (FU, Dark Empire, PT).

Would you be ok with the ST contradicting the JK series and/or the TOR series? As for me, no matter how much I love something, I have no problem with something else contradicting it. 

I do not see how ST can seriously contradict JK series since it is going to be set 20 years after, let alone KOTOR series. One great thing about JK series is that it does not really touch/pollute the main OT characters (unlike so many other EU sources) and it feels like its storyline is more of a side event. If the ST is good, even if there are a few contradictions I can sort them out in my head. If ST suck then I will just ignore ST.
