Robin Walker confirmed, about two or three weeks ago, that they currently have no plans to bring Steam to Linux. Honestly, I think the only reason they made it for Mac is because Apple made some kind of deal with them. With Linux, there is no company behind it to make that kind of deal, so I think it's very unlikely.
I also don't think it would bring in enough new customers to be worth it for them to make it for Linux. Any gamers that prefer to use Linux more than likely have a Windows OS dual-booted on their system, if only to play games. While it would probably be convenient for them to have Steam on Linux, Valve is only going to worry about how much money it will bring in.
