IMO if you are handing out serial numbers then, yes you are
participating in the contest. If you don't send a log in then you are
a participant who didn't send a log in. If you purposely or
accidentally broke the rules, and that's why you didn't submit your
log, you still should send it as a check log, that way you will help
out the log-checkers.
Yes, Telnet dx-cluster is here to stay, it's only a tool, just like
the callsign check file in your logging programme which was made with
the assistance of another operator.
