Missing :

Optimfrog		http://www.free-codecs.com/download/OptimFROG.htm
Monkey Audio ( APE )	http://www.monkeysaudio.com/
TTA			http://tta.iszf.irk.ru/   ( GPL )
Wavpack 		http://www.wavpack.com/   ( GPL )

Note that TTA and Wavpack are both Corecodec projects. Wavpack has also 
a very nice hybrid mode, allowing you to store the complementary file to 
the lossy version, so you can restore the lossless file if you have both.

More about them, also comparisons to the formats mentioned above, on
