That's really unfortunate. I hate seeing things die out, but that will probably be their fate. Especially if they're so anti-furry.
I've heard decent things about Fanime. They had some pretty good guests this year! Gilles Poitras! (OK, probably only exciting if you're into sociology of fandom and fannish academia... He's sort of an anime Henry Jenkins.)
Speaking of steampunk conventions...I put your name on the potential 2013 guests spreadsheet. The costuming director (ex, I think, and we haven't even had our first con yet?) wasn't terribly communicative. Hopefully that will be changing.
