Emax

You used the license procedure for the OmniFlop application itself. 
If you use OmniFlop (and not EMXP) to access some exotic disktypes, 
like Emax, you have to get a "disk" license in order to let OmniFlop 
read and write images of those disks.
This type of license however is NOT required if you only use the 
OmniFlop driver + EMXP, i.e. if you don't use the OmniFlop wizard 
application.

But you need another license just for allowing EMXP to access the 
OmniFlop driver. Jason of OmniFlop allows third party software (like 
EMXP) to use his driver. For each third party software application 
there's an access code within the omniflop driver. This access code 
must be activated by each user who wants to use the third party 
software. That's why you have to get the EMXP license.
In order to get this license, you have to start the OmniFlop wizard 
and press immediately on the "get a license" button, then choose EMXP
(N) from the list.
It's not important to provide disklayouts in the online form at 
sherlock's license website, because the EMXP license automatically 
contains all disklayouts supported by EMXP (being Emax and Akai 
S1000).
If you also want to read/write emax disks with OmniFlop itself (i.e. 
besides using EMXP), you'll have to get an additional license for 
Emax disks. Even if you already have a license for EMXP, the included 
Emax support in the EMXP license is not automatically available to 
the OmniFlop wizard application itself. It's only available to EMXP 
itself.

In the near future I will ask Jason to make EMXP free of license, so 
that you don't have to get any license anymore.
