I use png. Good compression (I use 5). All information remains.
tiff files are too large IMHO
jpeg is lossy, I only convert to jpg in the end for the web copies

I don't care about metadata in the edited images. I always strip the 
original metatdata (it remains in the raws which I never delete). But I 
guess this is not typical for many users...

Happy new year!
