my vote is for five weeks weeks since last activity. gives people time to have up to a month's holiday in areas without data connection.

the other thing is what "abandon" means: my vote is that it's a loss (not a draw) for the non-active player. Otherwise it might encourage (some) people who are losing to just drag out the game past the time-out point.
