Sam Raimi spoke exclusively to Empire at Comic-Con, and he confirmed they're still searching for a writer:

"I want to help contribute to the production," he said. "I don"t know if I"ll just be a producer on it but if I can work with the writer in such a way so that directing would be right for me, I don"t know. We"ve had our first meeting on Spider-Man 4 and we"re looking for the writer."

Back in January there were talks that David Koepp, the writer of the first "Spider-Man" was to pen the fourth installment. Stay tuned for more news as it comes in.
