Couple of Queries

[lkarthee]

Thanks for tanx repo, i have learnt a lot from it.

I have a couple of questions.

1. Tanx.Game.Manager is started using GenServer.start/3. This causes the process to start without links outside supervision tree. If I kill the Tanx.Game.Manager process in observer by sending kill (from :observer) - it does not respawn the Manager. Should GenServer.start_link/3 be used instead for starting Tanx.Game.Manager? Or there is reason behind using start/3?

2. Tanx.Handoff implements game state persistence across the cluster using handoff. Horde.Registry has meta/2 and put_meta/3. Can these be used for saving the game data instead of Tanx.Handoff?

I could not find answers for these questions anywhere. Please help me.
