Obvisiously if someone has a real life issue that is taking them from FF I understand but otherwise this just seems to show a lack of interest and that can't be good for the league.
I PM'd Steve a week ago, politely asking if there was a reason for his lack of activity. Tracking shows he read it, but he did not respond. If something real-life came up, he had an opportunity to respond and apparently has chosen not to.

As for penalties, whenever there is an ownership change, I don't think the sanctions taken against a previous owner should be enforced against a new one.

That said, if Steve were to remain in the league for 2008, I could see sanctions such as loss of picks, or moving his picks down being appropriate barring legitimate justification explaining his inactivity. Personally I think it's time we find a new owner.
