Hi John.

>keyboard-to-keyboard QSOs are valid?  

>Should we start one?

Perhaps no. Packet never was a mode of competition in ham operator
skills, like many hams doing it in cw/phone/teletype contests.

Its just a ham data media, to exchange ham information
such dx bulls, mailing, chatting etc...

The one possible use of packet mode for competition I can remember
is for chess playing.
Where information about the moves was transmitted by packet.
But this was a long time ago and I do not know already where
to get this program now.

Just my IMHO.

73, Sergej
